  • control means for providing a display command signal;

    display means connected to said control means and responsive to said display command signal to provide a visual display indication thereof;

    touch sensitive means conductively connected to said display means through a low resistance DC path, said touch sensitive means being responsive to a touch thereto to establish selectively an electrical conductive shunt of at least a portion of said display command signal from said display means through said DC path thereby changing a value of an electrical parameter of said display command signal; and

    signal means connected with said control means for measuring said electrical parameter of said display command signal for sensing said change in said electrical parameter value caused by said signal shunt from said display means and indicating a simultaneous provision of said display command signal and said touch.
