The screen comprises a plate having a printed pattern indicating a user interface, and a circuit board being located behind the back side of the plate, the circuit board comprising at least one capacitive element being adapted to detect a user input of the user interface. The screen is characterized in that the printed pattern is based on information from a configuration data file. The position of the printed user interface on the plate is configurable. In more detail, a customer (such as a fuel company) may design its own screen with respect to e.g. colour, size, and position of the buttons on the screen. The design may be inputted via a computer and may be stored in a configuration data file. The configuration data file may then be used by the manufacturer when printing the plate of the screen. More specifically, the plate of the screen is printed in accordance with the configuration data file such that colour, size and/or position of the user interface are in accordance with the configuration data file. In this way, the screen may easily be configured with respect to different client needs and requirements. Further, the expensive conventional push buttons may be avoided since the user interface is printed directly on the plate of the screen.
According to a second aspect, the objects are achieved by a method for manufacturing a screen for a fuel dispensing unit. The method comprises receiving a configuration data file specifying a printed pattern indicating the desired properties for a user interface of the screen, printing the pattern on a plate of the screen based on the based on information from the received configuration data file, and arranging a circuit board behind a back side of the plate of the screen, the circuit board comprising at least one capacitive element being adapted to detect a user input of the user interface.
According to a third aspect, the objects are achieved by a computer program product. The computer program product comprises a computer program code stored on a computer-readable storage medium which, when executed on a processor, carries out the steps of accessing a configuration data file containing information that specifies a printed pattern indicating the desired properties for a user interface of the screen, retrieving the information from the configuration data file, and providing the information to a device for printing the pattern on the plate of the screen.

Detailed description of preferred embodiments of the invention
Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 illustrate a payment terminal 1 for a fuel dispensing unit (not shown). The payment terminal 1 has a screen 2 with a user interface 3 which is used by the customer to select the desired type of fuel and to pay for the fuel when the refuelling process is completed. The screen 2 has a plate 4 with a front side 5 and a back side 6. The back side 6 comprises a printed pattern 7 indicating the actual user interface 3. Behind the back side 6, a circuit board 8 is being placed. The circuit board 8 comprises a capacitive element 9 consisting of a grid which is adapted to detect a user input of the user interface 3. The printed pattern 7 is based on information from a configuration data file when it is manufactured. Thus, the properties of the user interface 3 are specified by the configuration data file. Such properties may for example consist of a position, colour, and size of the user interface. The circuit board 8 is in turn connected to a control unit (not shown) of the fuel dispensing unit which operates the same based on the user input of the user interface 3 detected by the capacitive element 9. The circuit board 8 and the control unit are also connected to an antenna (not shown) which may identify a specific input from a user and/or a component of the fuel dispensing unit. Such a specific input could for example consist of credit card information from a customer or pump information from a fluid meter of the fluid dispensing unit.
When the screen 2 is to be manufactured the steps of receiving the configuration data file specifying the printed pattern 7 indicating the desired properties for the user interface 3 of the screen 2, printing the pattern 7 on the plate 4 of the screen 2 based on information from the received configuration data file, and arranging the circuit board 8 behind the back side 6 of the plate
4 of the screen 2, are performed. The circuit board 8 comprises at least one capacitive element 9 which is adapted to detect any user input of the user interface 3. The pattern 7 is normally printed on the back side 6 of the plate 4 of the screen 2. This is advantageous in that the actual printed pattern 7 will be protected inside the screen 2 and cannot be stained or tampered with from the outside of the screen 2. Further, when the plate 4 is mounted in the screen 2, it is preferably glued on its front side 5 and attached against a frame of the screen 2. This leaves the back side 6 completely free and the back side 6 of the plate 4 may accordingly be printed on even after the plate 4 has been mounted into the screen 2. In Fig. 3, a block diagram of an exemplary set up for a method of manufacturing the plate 4 for the screen 2, is illustrated. The method is carried out by means computer program product comprising a computer program code specifying the method. The first step of the method is to access the configuration data file containing information that specifies the printed pattern 7 indicating the desired properties for the user interface 3 of the screen 2. The second step of the method is to retrieve the information from the configuration data file. The final step of the method is to input the information to a device 10 for printing the pattern 7 on the plate 4 of the screen 2.
