Auswuchtgerät Conless

English translation: probably Conless

German term or phrase: Auswuchtgerät Conless
Context: wiring diagram for a grinding wheel balancer.
At first I thought Conless might be the name of the company that makes the balancers. But Internet queries resulted in the following:
"Stella Tutorial
Millisecond clock mode is slightly less intuitive but results in "conless" time calculations when running the scheduler in real time."
and "The scheduler has been optimized and rewritten to use resources and now runs conless."

After having seen the above, I am assuming that the German original is using the English term. Can anyone shed any light on the meaning of "conless"?
Thanks in advance for any help, Beth

Explanation:
The hits I get are either names of people or terms used in MIDI programs or computer animation -- and even in these cases, the term may well come from a person's name. At any rate, neither of them seems to fit your context.

If you really want to know what it means in the games context, have a look at the reference and send an e-mail to one of the persons listed.

Explanation:
I also fed conless into a search engine and the first hit featured "connectionless", although strangely, "conless" was nowhere to be seen. You probably found this aswell, but wouldn't it make sense? Eva
