Secure enclosure for portable electronic display device operated by push buttons

A secure robust protective enclosure for a portable electronic display device that incorporates a sufficiently ridged transparent window so as to limit the user interface to push buttons located on the front of the enclosure. The enclosure's control buttons mechanically actuate corresponding control buttons on the enclosed portable electronic display device. When only two control buttons are used, the user interface is simplified to reduce the training required to use the device. The user interface button or buttons are labeled via shape, color and a numeral, to assist in language-neutral identification of the control button's function. Typically one button functions as a “tab key” that cycles through the available choices that are shown on the portable electronic display device's display screen and the other button functions as a “enter key” that activates the selected choice.

Manufactured product configuration

One aspect related to design of systems and methods for manufacture of products is configuration. More particularly, this relates to verification of an existing configuration and to reconfiguration of a product following manufacturing. The present invention contemplates an approach to designing a station capable of configuration verification and reconfiguration and of preventing shipment of a product if an undesirable configuration is detected. A preferred approach also includes guiding the operator to take possible remedial action. The preferred approach further includes storing various types of data needed for the verification and reconfiguration in a server, thereby making such data substantially instantly accessible for verification and reconfiguration purposes. Such data preferably includes software capable of adapting the functions of the station itself, i.e., the tasks to be performed at the configuration verification and reconfiguration station. A system design using this approach is particularly useful in the manufacture of a microwave radio.
