Abstract (en)
The switch has an actuating element (1) i.e. press or rotary button, that is supported in a twistable manner. Four press switches (21-24) are attached to the actuating element for electrical switching functions. The switches are arranged together in a crosswise manner and coupled with an evaluation unit and connecting contacts, where the evaluation unit is arranged outside the switch. Eight switching functions are assigned to the press switches in star shaped rotatable switching positions of the actuating element. Light source designed of LED, is arranged on a printed circuit board (4). The press or rotary button is coupled with a fork light barrier (15) designed as a ring made of ferromagnetic material.
