Abstract
An indicating instrument includes an indicating needle provided in an instrument board, a stopper device to define a turning start position and a returning position of the indicating needle, a stepping motor for driving the indicating needle, and a control device to control the stepping motor; the control device outputs a zero reset signal for returning the indicating needle to the stopper device and a signal for moving the indicating needle away from the stopper device to the stepping motor when the stepping motor is turned on or turned off to carry out a missed step reset processing.
