Abstract
A control system for entering data into a copier controller relating to the parameters of an original to be copied, having a platen upon which the original is placed for exposure, comprising electrically sensitive membrane strips applied adjacent to the platen, said strips being formed with touch sensitive portions whereupon touching by an operator effects a signal indicative of the location of the touch, and means connecting the strips to the controller for transmitting the signals thereto, the signals being representative of document size. Also included is a special switch to convert the touch sensitive portions of the membrane strips into document editing functions.
