1.1This test method covers the measurement of force displacement characteristics of a membrane switch.
1.1.1This test method replaces Test Method F1570 (Tactile Ratio). Tactile Actuating Slope Angle and Tactile Recovery Slope Angle better represent the characterization of tactile sensation, previously called “Tactile Ratio” in Test Method F1570.
1.1.2This test method replaces Test Method F1682 (Travel).
1.1.3This test method replaces Test Method F1597 (Actuation and Contact Force).
1.1.4This test method replaces Test Method F1997 (Switch Sensitivity).
1.2Force displacement hysterisis loop curve can be used in the determination of Actuation Force, Displacement, Contact Force, Return Force, and Tactile Actuating Slope Angle and Tactile Recovery Slope Angle.
1.3This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
