operational tell-tale Explanation: This would be a light which tells you whether the device is working or not (or working properly or not). Translation taken from Termium Plus. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 mins (2010-08-19 21:16:56 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Definition: "Informe le conducteur qu'un dispositif a été mis en action et qu'il fonctionne correctement." (this is obviously in the context of a car/vehicle - but applies to most electronics). |
