<p>The present invention provides a multifunctional input device (1). The input device includes a functional mode (12) which defines the mode of operation of the input device. Each functional mode includes one or more domain levels (20) with each domain level containing one or more domain-level values. Each domain level-value within each functional mode is assigned to one of a plurality of programmable input keys (30). The domain-level value assigned to each programmable input key controls the function of that programmable input key within a given functionality and domain level. The present invention also includes a display (32) to indicate the domain-level value associated with each of the programmable input keys within a given functionality .</p> |
