German term or phrase: Bahnkanntenregelung

"1. Sicherheitshinweise

1.1 Bestimmungsgemäße Verwendung

Das ABC dient in Verbindung mit einer CCD-Gabellichtschranke zur Realisierung einer ***Bahnkanntenregelung***.

Das ABC ist nicht als eigenständiges Gerät zu betreiben, sondern dient ausschließlich zum Anbau an eine Maschine.

Die auf dem Typenschild und im Kapitel „Technische Daten“ genannten Betriebsanforderungen, insbesondere die zulässige Versorgungsspannung, müssen eingehalten werden.

Das Gerät darf nur gemäß dieser Betriebsanleitung gehandhabt werden. Veränderungen des Geräts sind nicht gestattet. Der Hersteller haftet nicht für Schäden, die sich aus einer unsachgemäßen oder nicht bestimmungsgemäßen Verwendung ergeben. Auch erlöschen in diesem Fall die Gewährleistungsansprüche."

From an instruction manual for a positioning device. I haven't got a clue what "Bahnkanntenregelung" is (adjustment or control of a "Bahnkannte" or maybe "Bahnkante", but what's that?) and can find no references for it anywhere. TIA for any light you can shed on this extremely strange word.

Edge Guide Controls
The H3321B and H4321 Edge Guide controls provide a cost-effective method of adjusting and maintaining web edge position. Examples are reel stand (let-off and re-reeling), steering roller, and pivoting roller type applications.
This edge guide control centers the web by monitoring edge sensors and moving the actuator as needed to maintain center.
