Zusammenfassung:An impact tool having a multiple position non-contact trigger system. The trigger system includes a trigger member having at least one magnet moveable along a plurality of non-contact sensors when the trigger member moves from a non-actuated position to a fully actuated position. The plurality of non-contact sensors sense the movement of the trigger member and output a corresponding signal to a controller. The controller may command the impact tool to perform a function from a plurality of functions based on the position of the trigger element, where each position of the trigger element may correspond to a different mode of the power tool system.
