Abstract
An electrical device with a power switch has at least two different electrical operational states and a circuit which detects a sequence of momentary fluctuations of power defining a First user message, corresponding to a change in state. The circuit implements that change in state in response to detection of the First message. Another circuit detects a sequence of momentary fluctuations of power, different from the sequence of the First user message, defining a Second user message and defining a fixed Reset electrical operational state. The device also implements a change from the current electrical operational state, to the fixed Reset electrical operational state. A memory circuit stores the current electrical operational state, a number corresponding to one of the countable numbers of electrical operational state, and provides retentions of its memory, including the stored current electrical operational state, during periods of power off.
