Tech/Engineering - Electronics / Elect Eng / Control systems/calibration | | German term or phrase: zur Signalisierung (here) | Context:
During a calibration process which requires full deflection to be repeated several times in each direction:
Bei jeder Auslenkung werden die Meßwerte gefiltert, bis sich ein gleichmäßiger Zustand eingestellt hat; erst dann werden die Meßwerte verwertet, und zur Signalisierung für den Benutzer wird für jede Auslenkung und für jede Rückkehr in die Mittenlage ein Stern "*" angezeigt.
I'm not sure whether this means that an asterisk is displayed each time until the steady state has been reached, or thereafter, or when exactly. What is being signalled/indicated to the user? |
