Abstract
An operator for controlling electrically adjustable furniture includes a housing and an actuation panel movably supported in the housing to form a cover body. A circuit board is provided in the housing, and a main control unit for detecting an actuation signal is provided on the circuit board. A first switch for generating a first actuation signal and a second switch for generating a second actuation signal are provided between the actuation panel and the main control unit, and a third switch for generating a third actuation signal is provided between a bottom wall of the housing and the main control unit. The main control unit issues a first command when simultaneously detecting the first actuation signal and the second actuation signal, and the main control unit issues a second command when simultaneously detecting the first actuation signal, the second actuation signal, and the third actuation signal.
