E Perret (asker) Feb 8, 2006:
Hi Volker. Yes, perhaps they mean "Zwangsregelung" and "Handregelung". In the original it is as displayed above.
volker_h Feb 8, 2006:
I think this might refer to "Zwangsregelung" and "Handregelung". Are you sure that it is Zwangshand ?

Zwangssteuerung -> forced control

I think it's Zwangssteuerung, you're after.

although it might also be a "forced manual" control mode

"forced manual" in the sense that you don't have the option of setting it back to automatic

given that it gives HAND/AUTOMATIK just before, "forced manual" seems quite plausible

"Zwangshand" comes up on google in this context. So I revoke my guess that it might be "Zwangssteuerung"
