German term or phrase: Schiebetritt ausgefahren

The sentence is:

Der Fahrtschreiber ist gemäß VDV-Schrift 165 v. 10/97 auszuführen. Zum Einsatz auf den Fahrzeugen ist ein Kurzweg registrierender Fahrtschreiber mit Bus-Anschluss vorgesehen, welcher als autarkes, eigenständiges System ausgeführt ist und mindestens folgende Betriebsdaten aufzeichnet:
