A method performed by a device (e.g., touch controller) includes deriving a pen position, and transmitting a report indicating the derived pen position to a host computer. The report includes a first area storing position data indicating the derived position and a second area storing non-position data different from the position data. The method includes securing a buffer area for retaining a plurality of the reports in a memory, deriving the pen position at each determined scanning time, and generating a report including the position data indicating the derived position. The method includes storing the report in the buffer area and, in response to obtaining the non-position data, writing the non-position data in the second area of each of one or more of the reports stored in the buffer area. The method includes transmitting the plurality of the reports stored in the buffer area to the host computer.
