Apparatus and associated methods relate to a housing having a deformable membrane configured to interface with a programming module of an industrial product, where the deformable membrane includes a waved surface designed to deform under the finger pressure of a human user. In an illustrative example, the housing may be formed of a rigid material (e.g., polyamide) to serve as a protective barrier for the industrial product. The waved surface may have one or more waves (e.g., 7) that may possess certain dimensions and deformation parameters that are designed to allow a user to engage a programming switch via the deformable membrane. A user may advantageously provide input to the programming module via the deformable membrane without having to access the internal areas of the industrial product, thus avoiding the risk of damaging or interfering with the internal mechanisms and systems of the industrial product.
