<p>A manually actuatable integrated pilot light/contact/communications module connecting to an associated output device also having a communications module by means of a common communications link. The integrated pilot light/contact/communications module has at least one electrical contact, a logic circuit, a communications circuit, a communications terminal and pilot light activation circuit mounted on a printed circuit board. The printed circuit board provides communication between the electrical contact and the logic circuit, between the logic circuit and the communications circuit, between the communications circuit and the communications terminal, between the communications circuit and the pilot light activation circuit, and between the pilot light activation circuit and the pilot light. A translation pin is partially enclosed within the housing and movable between a first position and a second position. An operator interface device is attached to the integrated pilot light/contact/communications module. The translation pin, in response to movement of the operator interface device, causes the contact to change state thereby initiating a signal to be processed by the logic circuit and communications circuit prior to being placed on the common communications link.</p> |
