Abstract:
A keypad device includes a circuit board having raised buttons disposed on a first surface of the circuit board, resilient switches disposed on a periphery of the first surface, and through-holes, wherein each of the raised buttons and switches, when actuated, closes a circuit on the circuit board and affects an input to the device. The keypad device includes a faceplate fastened to the circuit board, the faceplate having an array of openings configured to allow the buttons to pass through, bosses extending from a first surface of the faceplate toward the circuit board and positioned to pass through the through-holes on the circuit board, and plungers aligned above and in contact with the resilient switches such that when the plate is pressed toward the circuit board, in a region at or near a subject plunger, the subject plunger actuates the resilient switch that is in contact with the plunger.

Claim (Index 12):
The keypad device of  claim 1 , wherein:\n the circuit board further comprises:\n a third switch; and \n the faceplate further comprises:\n a first icon positioned substantially proximate to the first position, such that depressing the first icon actuates the second switch; \n a second icon positioned substantially proximate to a second position, such that depressing the second icon actuates the third switch, \n wherein depressing the first icon does not actuate the third switch and depressing the second icon does not actuate the second switch.
