Patent ID: 7258481

Claim:
A method of setting/calibrating at least two display hands in an electronic device, wherein each of the at least two display hands is independently and operatively coupled to an actuation mechanism that rotates its associated display hand in at least one of a clockwise and counterclockwise direction in response to actuation of a setting/calibration mechanism, wherein the method comprises the steps of: initiating an actuation sequence of the setting/calibration mechanism; indicating the first hand to be set/calibrated by causing the first of the at least two display hands to rotate at least in one of a clockwise and counterclockwise direction and in a manner that is independent of the actuation sequence; initiating a hand selection sequence via a selection mode to select the second of the at least two display hands to be set/calibrated; and while preventing the first of the at least two display hands from rotating, indicating the second hand to be set/calibrated by causing the second of the at least two display hands to rotate in at least one of a clockwise and counterclockwise direction and in a manner independent of the hand selection sequence; wherein the second of the at least two display hands would be next for setting/calibrating.
