German term or phrase: sich Handshakes auf Kundeninterface sparen
still on my motion control text:

Unter dem Menüpunkt „Programm-&Sequenzen“ können Fahrsequenzen abgelegt werden. Man spart sich dadurch einzelne Handshakes auf dem Kundeninterface. Sequenzen werden wie das Anfahren einzelner Positionen gestartet, nur dass anstelle dem Befehl „Move to Pos“ der Befehl „Start Sequence“ gegeben wird. Es können 32 Fahrsequenzen (Nr.0...Nr.31) abgelegt werden. Jeder Fahrsequenz besteht aus maximal 5 Befehlen.

This saves us from doing handshakes with the user interface?

prevent handshaking on the client interface
Explanation:
"handshaking" (Quittungsbetrieb) is a data communications function, where the sender sends out a short notice of transmission and the receiver confirms receipt of the transmission. This is usually done on data packet level.

Do not use "user intrerface" because that is indeterminate. Here they are talking about a "host" (probably the sending server) and a "client" (the receiving end).

disagree  mckinnc: repeated has to go after eleiminates and you can't use the word "client-sided"

  -> Yep, word order scrambled, pushed button too fast. Depends on system layout whether client-sided is applicable.
