Abstract

See full text

A furniture control (100) for the installation into an electrically adjustable piece of seating furniture (200) comprises a control housing (10) that contains control components for activating motors of the piece of seating furniture and features a recess (15) into which an operating part (20) can be inserted, the operating part and a sensor for detecting whether the operating part (20) is inserted into the control housing (10). The operating part features a flat sensor module (30) with a touch-sensitive surface. The operating part (20) is designed for detecting a respective position-dependent touch actuation of the surface of the sensor module (30) and for generating a respective actuation signal for the control components based on a detected touch actuation. The operating part (20) is furthermore designed for generating a first number of different actuation signals for the control components when the operating part (20) is inserted into the control housing (10) and for generating a second number of different actuation signals for the control components when the operating part (20) is not inserted into the control housing (10), wherein the second number is greater than the first number.
