Einstellknopf


Explanation:
Mein Vorschlag ist von der Tatsache inspririert, dass davor wahrscheinlich "Multifunktionsknopf" steht, und ich mir eine Multifunktionstaste nicht so ohne weiteres vorstellen kann.

set button
Multifunktions-Einstellungsknopf


Explanation:
Kommt darauf an ob es sich um einen KNOPF oder um eine TASTE handelt (bitte beim Auftraggeber nachfragen !)

SET ist Englisch und bedeuted "Einstellung" kann natürlich in den deutschen Sprachgebrauch übernommen werden, falls dieser vom Zielpublikum verstanden wird. Ich würde aber den deutschen Begriff verwenden.

Kleine Präzision ! Knöpfe dreht man, und Tasten drückt man, meiner Meinung nach. Also nachfragen !
