Tech/Engineering - Electronics / Elect Eng / welding controls
Spanish term or phrase: consigna
This seems to be a word I come back to time + time again as it's not explianed satisfactorily in dictionaries or in a way that seems to fit contexts. Here are sample sentences:


Si E2.0=OFF, la pinza sigue la consigna de posición indicada por el robot


La pinza debe moverse a la consigna de posición.


El esfuerzo de fresado no se ha alcanzado, o la consigna de esfuerzo es menor que el mínimo permitido (0.5 kN).


Si se emplea la Entrada Analógica como consigna de esfuerzo de soldadura, verificar la tensión aplicada y el valor del parámetro FEsc.
