Abstract

A button for an electrical device is disclosed. The button has a button portion which can be physically pressed, a moveable portion which moves from a first position to a second position when the button portion is pressed, and the button portion is connected either directly or indirectly to one end of the movable portion and moves with the movable portion, biasing means operable to bias at least the movable portion to the first position, and remotely operable actuating means operable to move the movable portion from the first position to the second position without the button portion being physically pressed. The button is electrically connected by wiring to the electrical device and causes or allows the electrical device to perform a particular function, or to operate in a particular manner, when the movable portion moves into the second position. The button further includes one or more components, including a sender, operable to emit electromagnetic radiation, one or more components, including a receiver, operable to receive at least part of said emitted electromagnetic radiation, and a space between at least the sender and the receiver. The sender is operable to send electromagnetic radiation across the space between the sender and the receiver, and the receiver is operable to receive the electromagnetic radiation, and a second end of the movable portion, which is opposite to the end to which the button portion is connected, becomes positioned at least partially in the space between the sender and the receiver when the movable portion is in the second position, whereby, when the moveable portion is in the second position, the second end of the movable portion breaks or interrupts the flow of electromagnetic radiation from the sender to the receiver, whereupon electronics associated with the button signal that the button has been pressed. The button allows for remote testing, checking, and confirmation of the operational status of the electrical device which testing would normally depend on the physical operation or manipulation by a person.
