Push-lock type
- Switch ON operation: At the time of switch ON operation, the switch is pushed from the reference point to the pushed position , and the switch turns ON. When the switch is released from this position, the switch returns from the pushed position to the hold position , and the switch position is held there.
- Switch OFF operation: At the time of the switch OFF operation, the switch is pushed from the hold position to the pushed position . When the switch is released from this position, the switch returns from the pushed position to the reference point , and the switch turns OFF.
Push-return type
- Switch ON operation: At the time of the switch ON operation, the switch is pushed from the reference point to the pushed position , and the switch turns ON. When the switch is released from this position, the switch returns from the pushed position to the reference point .
- Switch OFF operation: At the time of the switch OFF operation, the switch is pushed from the reference point to the pushed position , and the switch turns OFF. When the switch is released from this position, the switch returns from the pushed position to the reference point .
- For details the function of each switch. Refer to Switch Name and Function.
