peer agreement (net): +1
peer agreement (net): +1mast / Mast window Explanation: As Coqueiro noted, this seems to be data for the track's mast spacing / dimensions and possibly overhead catenary wires. See here: http://www.zusi.de/zusi3/zusi3oberleitung.htm Something specifically for "Messkurve": "Die Darstellung der einzelnen Setzungen und der dazugehörigen Messkurve werden jeweils in einer bestimmten Farbe dargestellt und lassen sich so unverwechselbar zuordnen." + "Anwendungsbereiche • Verkehrswegebau o z.B. Planum, Kanal-, Rohleitungs- und Gleisbau, Brückenhinterfüllung" http://www.jaeger-pruefsysteme.de/index.html/dt leichtes fal... It all fits together. PS: I didn't capitalize the first "w" in "window" because it depends on whether "window" is going to be incorporated into the form's name. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 days1 hr (2014-07-27 22:41:49 GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- There is indeed something called a "Mastfenster", as you can see here: http://visual.merriam-webster.com/energy/hydroelectricity/el... However, this is talking about (normal) electricity supply and I don't see how this could apply here. Especially because your sentence... Dazu wird für einen beliebigen Mast das Mastfenster geöffnet und der „Synchr.“ Button gedrückt. ...looks like one that could also be found in any other kind of business software, e.g., "Open the Sales Order window and press Synchronize". See also "mast": http://visual.merriam-webster.com/transport-machinery/rail-t... More information you may find useful: http://www.railway-technical.com/etracp.shtml#Overhead-Line-...
