1. An input apparatus, comprising:
- an operating portion including a plurality of metal buttons for receiving a manipulation command;
a display for visually providing a control command created based on an output signal from the operating portion including the plurality of metal buttons; and
a controller for converting the operating portion including the plurality of metal buttons to an active state if a predetermined first manipulation command is input to the plurality of metal buttons, and for controlling the display to provide an increment adjustment screen in which a predetermined first increment is to be adjusted, wherein if a predetermined drag touch is input to the plurality of metal buttons after the predetermined first manipulation command is input, the predetermined first increment is adjusted,wherein if the predetermined first manipulation command is input to the operating portion, the controller converts the operating portion to an active state to receive an operating command for a function corresponding to a metal button to which the predetermined first manipulation command is input, among the plurality of metal buttons included in the operating portion, andwherein if a predetermined second manipulation command is input to the operating portion after the operating portion is activated, the controller controls the display to provide a new increment adjustment screen having an adjustment increment that is different from an adjustment increment of the increment adjustment screen provided thereon.

9. A method of controlling an input apparatus, the input including an operating portion including a plurality of metal buttons for receiving a manipulation command, and a display for visually providing a control command created based on an output signal from the operating portion, the method comprising:
-
converting the operating portion including the plurality of metal buttons to an active state if a predetermined first manipulation command is input to the plurality of metal buttons; and providing an increment adjustment screen in which a predetermined first increment is to be adjusted on the display, wherein if a predetermined drag touch is input to the plurality of metal buttons after the predetermined first manipulation command is input, the predetermined first increment is adjusted, wherein the converting the operating portion comprises; if the predetermined first manipulation command is input to the operating portion, converting the operating portion to the active state in order to receive an operating command for a function corresponding to a metal button to which the first manipulation command is input, among the plurality of metal buttons included in the operating portion, and if a predetermined second manipulation command is input to the operating portion converted to the active state, providing a new increment adjustment screen having an adjustment increment that is different from an adjustment increment of an increment adjustment screen provided on the display. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
