Abstract:
Input or control device has a flat capacitively, or resistively, or inductively, or optically, or acoustically evaluated touch layer (2), which is continuously spread over the control zone (1), and also has a graphic layer (3) with a graphical representation of at least one button (4) and/or a key (5) and/or some other control element. Graphic layer (3) is adapted for removal and replacement with at least one different graphic layer, while the first graphic layer (31) and at least one other different graphic layer (32) have different number, and/or shape, and/or layout, and/or graphical representation of the button (4), and/or key (5), and/or some other control element. Evaluation unit (6) is interconnected with the touch layer (2) and is adjusted to the different evaluation of a touch, based on the current graphic layer (3). The graphic layer (3) can be located under or on top of the touch layer (2). For every graphic layer (3) has been assigned an interpretation definition, a map stored in the memory of the evaluation unit (6). The user of the controlled device can upload the interpretation definition into the device even later.

Claim (Index 33):
The input or control device with variable controls configuration of  claim 20 , wherein the graphic layer has a flat physical medium adjusted for being attached to the touch layer ( 2 ), the physical medium has at least on one side located an image of at least one control element, mainly a button ( 4 ) and/or a key ( 5 ), an interpretation map is assigned to the physical medium, the interpretation map is located in the memory medium, the interpretation map defines assignment of the individual parts of the touch layer surface ( 2 ) or its individual sensors or group of sensors to the respective controls, that are assigned to the respective function of the controlled device.
