at the tip of the pane? Explanation: One of the translations of the word "panne" is "pane". Could this device have some kind of pane whose tip has to reach a certain temperature in order to be operative? Just a shot in the dark. It would help if you specified what the word "il" (in "qu'il soit réglé à une température...") means. |

at the end of the stick/bar/rod Explanation: With photodiodes, for which there a zillions of websites, I could not find anything to make sense of this in context. All I do know is that "panne" in construction terminology is a rafter, a binding rafter or an interlocking parlin used in the construction of a roof to describe the horizontal beam which is set onto the main rafter and which bears the angle and other common rafters. By extension, I can only put forward the idea that this is a rod, bar or stick element which may well amke sense to you when put in context. All the best, Nikki Larousse 2000, Dic Architecture & Contrsuction, Lavoisier |
