Cards in this group · 4

  1. C10.16.1A physical control’s life is usually measured in presses or turns it can survive
  2. C10.16.2Mechanical wear changes key travel and damping feel gradually, rather than failing all at once
  3. C10.16.3High-use controls need a higher rated life than low-use ones
  4. C10.16.4The gradualness of mechanical failure lets it affect operation before it is noticed
