Abstract
An electronic pen configured to transmit signals to a sensor of a position detecting device includes a core body; a signal transmitter which transmits a signal for position detection and a signal including information about the electronic pen to the sensor of the position detecting device; and a protector which sets at least a tip of the core body between a protected state and an unprotected state. In response to at least the tip of the core body being in the unprotected state, the signal for position detection and the signal including the information are transmitted from the signal transmitter to the sensor of the position detecting device. In response to at least the tip of the core body being in the protected state, the signal for position detection is transmitted from the signal transmitter and the signal including the information is not transmitted from the signal transmitter.
