Japanese term or phrase: リービング
This term appears in a crane operation manual. The paragraph was talking about a switch on the control panel which can be used as a tag line and リービング switch when some optional parts are added.

このスイッチは、タグライン&リービングスイッチに変更となります。

What does リービング mean? Surely it's not "leaving"? I can't find an appropriate term on the Internet. Please help. Thanks.
