Tech/Engineering - Computers: Systems, Networks / Communications equipment | | Spanish term or phrase: dejará de interrogarla | Communication equipment for signals - Real-Time Databases
I'm wondering what the best translation of "interrogar" is in this context. Would it be "to query" or "to challenge" or "to perform an inquiry"?
I've provided two sections of context below.
ERT = Remote Control Station (RCS).
Thanks in advance.
"Cuando el operador fuerce el "Administrative Down" de una ERT, el RFE realizará lo siguiente:
• Marcará la señalización simple asociada ("administrative down").
• Sacará la Remota Física asociada a la ERT de comunicaciones (**dejará de interrogarla**).
• Marcará todos los puntos de la Remota Lógica como "not topical".
• Pondrá los cuatro single points asociados a los bit "eeee" a 0."
"La comunicación de un concentrador con una ERT se estable a través de una línea de comunicaciones redundante, es decir, cada línea posee dos canales asignados, de tal forma que **interroga** a dicha ERT por uno de ellos, conmutando de canal o bien periódicamente o bien por fallo de las comunicaciones." |
