A CONTROL SYSTEM FOR USE IN CONTROLLING OPERATION OF AN ELECTRICAL APPLIANCE

A control system for use in controlling operation of an electrical appliance, the system including: a processor module disposed inside of a housing of the electrical appliance, said processor module including at least one contactless-type sensor operably-connected with the processor module; an input control module including: an attachment element configured for releasably attaching the input control module to an outer surface of the housing; and at least one sensor-readable element configured for contactless-interaction with the contactless-type sensor; wherein said at least one sensor-readable element of the input control module is configured for movement into a plurality of different positions relative to the at least one contactless-type sensor of the processor module disposed inside the housing, whereby responsive to said movement of the at least one sensor-readable element into the plurality of different positions relative to the at least one contactless-type sensor, the contactless-type sensor is configured to sense a plurality of different readings from the sensor-readable element, and, said processor module is configured for controlling the electrical appliance to operate in a plurality of different operational modes by reference to the plurality of different readings sensed by the contactless-type sensor.
