Input sequences and menus • Constraints: • keypad size: only 10 numbers and *, # • consistency: cancel key should always be the same key, etc. • numerical entry required for COUNT – can’t have number keys triggering options when user is trying to enter numerical input • need for global commands to be always accessible, except during numerical entry mode • ease of use (commonly used commands grouped together) • 1 = Weight, 2 = Count across all modes • Globals: 3 = Tare, 4 = Gram ↔Ounce, 5 = Mute ↔Unmute • 6, 7, 8, 9: extra menu options for Factory mode • 0: Factory ↔ User mode (+ confirmation for entering Factory) • * = OK, # = cancel / go up a menu level
