Signal lock

Portuguese translation: Capturar o sinal

12:31 Jan 23, 2015
English to Portuguese translations [PRO]
Tech/Engineering - Telecom(munications) / Georreferenciamento
English term or phrase: Signal lock
O contexto é um manual de uso de um software de georreferenciamento de navios.

O termo aparece como uma opção no manual: Signal lock

E também nessa única frase:

(...) system may have lost """""beam lock""""" or has switched to a different geostationary satellite

A tradução ''Acoplamento do sinal'' está na TM que o cliente me enviou, mas não estou totalmente convencido.

Agradeço todas as ajudas de antemão.

neutral  Mauro Lando: sorry, Mario, not quite. "to lock" no jargão de radares militares significa que o radar "pegou" o sinal do alvo. Na situação "lock" os sistemas auto do avião permitem o disparo. Se ele perde o sinal: "unlock" a opção disparo fica desabilitada.

  -> Ah! Pesquisei uma equivalência e encontrei o "bloqueio". Mas pus nível "3" justamente por não ter certeza. Valeu!
