ABSTRACT:
An operation apparatus is designed for use with a system to deal with operation information of the system. In the operation apparatus, an operation piece is manually operable to move in a linear or circular direction to a position indicative of the operation information. A detection section detects the position of the operation piece and outputs position data corresponding to the detected position. A drive section responds to position data inputted from the system to automatically move the operation piece to a position corresponding to the inputted position data. An acquiring section provisionally acquires a plurality of reference position data which are outputted from the detection section when the operation piece is placed at a plurality of reference positions such that the respective reference position data correspond to the respective reference positions. A correcting section corrects the position data outputted from the detection section according to the provisionally acquired reference position data and outputs the corrected position data to the system.
