          Appeal No. 96-2189                                                          
          Application 07/969,731                                                      



          The Examiner argues that it is well known in the art to                     
          provide visual indication to users using color.                             
               Upon a closer inspection of Matsko, we find that Figure 5              
          shows a front panel 63 having first switch means 144, 145,                  
          146, 147, 148, 149 and 156 thereon for adjusting the                        
          selectable parameters.  In particular, Matsko discloses in                  
          column 14, line 58, through column 15, lines 7, that these                  
          seven rotary switches 144-149 and 156 are for selecting a                   
          value for LDPU factor, LDT factor, SDPU factor, SDT factor,                 
          INSTPU factor, GFPU factor and GET factor, respectively.                    
          Matsko further shows in Figure 5 that the front panel 63                    
          having a second switch means 150, 151 and 152 for testing said              
          trip means.  In particular, Matsko discloses in column 15,                  
          lines 7-31, that the rotary switch 150 is for selecting test                
          values, test push-button switch 151 is for starting the test                
          and test trip reset push-button switch 152 is for resetting                 
          the system.  Matsko further shows in Figure 5 that the first                
          switch means 144, 145, 146, 147, 148, 149 and 156 are                       
          distinguished from the second switch means 150, 151 and 152 by              
          physical placement of the first switch means as a group in one
