English term

ship/pass position

English to French Medical Medical: Instruments Scalpel
"Audible click confirms that the safety sheath is in the ship/pass position or in the use position"

This is the description of a security scalpel with a protection shield that one can slide to cover the blade. I don't quite know what "ship" refers to.

Any help appreciated.

positionnement remisage (versus utilisation)

Je viens de relire et c'est le contraire. Le ship/pass position réfère au fait que la lame est recouverte de manière sécuritaire par un protecteur que l'on fait glisser dessus et qui la recouvre. Mes excuses.
Example sentence:

Un cliquetis indique que la lame est hors portée ou est protégée.
