bouton logiciel

Explanation:
je suppose qu'il s'agit de "soft icon key" sur un écran tactile - une icône qui est aussi un bouton de commande, pas seulement une indication de niveau d'huile par exemple.

cf: (appareil médical, mais le système est similaire).
"The four soft key icons are as follows (figure 3-5):
MW OFF - This is the top soft key, and will disable MW Power immediately
whenever it is pressed. This generates an error message, therefore it is preferred
that other controls are used for managing patient comfort.
UP/ON/YES - This is the second soft key from the top. It is used to modify the
current selected control value. Its function changes depending on the highlighted
parameter.
DOWN/OFF/NO - This is the third soft key from the top. It is also used to
modify the current selected control value. Its function changes depending on
the highlighted parameter.
NEXT - This is the bottom soft key and is used to navigate the highlighted
options. It can be pressed at any time without changing any treatment
parameters."
