ABSTRACT:
Disclosed and claimed is a switch. The switch can allow for push only, pull only, push-pull, left turn only, right turn only, left and right turn, or push-pull left turn right turn combinations of action, with the switch actions being maintained, momentary, or combinations of both in any switch with multiple positions. The switch can incorporate multiple means of mounting, multiple means of signal wire termination, an extensive variety of circuit possibilities, and an array of multiple LED illumination capability packaged in the smallest controller switch footprint available today. The resultant improvement in panel density and signal functions per cubic volume of space provides customers with unparalleled cost savings.
