Disparate coordination? [(X to) and (Y of)] (Z)

Question

Hello everybody,Trying to translate a list of features of a device into English, I've come across an item in the form of a coordinating structure that sounds a bit weird already in the original language.In English, it might be something like"...Physical access and data acquisition in the field..."It could be somewhat ambiguous as to what exactly "physical access" is supposed to refer to - the device or the data? On the other hand, it may not matter at all after all, as you actually need the device to collect the data in the field, so...I'm afraid I'm a bit confused.The above item is further explained in the original text as follows:"...- a possibility to connect a computer to the device via a USB connector, or to download the data directly from the micro SD card within the device..."Anyway, what are your opinions?I will be thankful for any comments, suggestions or advice.Thank you!Best,P.

"Physical access and data acquisition in the field"

As a summary of a feature of a device or product, this means:
(a) Physical access (to something unspecified)
AND
(b) data acquisition (again, not clearly specified)
... in the field.

In other words, two separate and not necessarily related things that can be done "in the field".

There is no ambiguity about the general meaning of the sentence; this is because of data, which binds with acquisition, and separates data acquisition from physical access. But I suspect that's not the right way to explain that feature. It really depends on what features the point is trying to cover.

Based on my experience with devices like this, I suspect this point may be trying to describe a feature whereby the equipment can be interrogated in the field, i.e. where the device is currently installed, using a laptop or a custom interrogation device of some kind.

If that's the case, data acquisition is not appropriate in that point; data acquisition specifically refers to continuous acquisition (and usually, storage) of data, not the data interrogation that can be done manually using that feature. Do you think that's what that point is trying to explain? Perhaps you need to translate more of the booklet, then come back to this line.

Thanks a lot for the elucidating response, KrisBlueNZ!

I've now completed a quick draft version of the translation (of a two-page brochure), but I'm not sure I can post it here and bother you or any other members of the forum with it. Quite naturally, I'd be extremely thankful if somebody went through the text and checked it.

As for the purpose of the device, I think it does involve continuous acquisition as well as storage of data. Some of the features include:
"...
- 2x analogue input for the measurement of voltages and currents ranging from 100 mV (5 mA) above
- 2x digital impulse (counter) or binary input
- 2x digital output (can also be used as switches of detector/sensor feed)
- 1x USB port for the communication with a PC, a Mini USB port
- 1x RS485 serves to connect to intelligent sensors communicating by means of the RS485 HART protocol
- logging interval: between 1 second and 24 hours (also suitable for pumping and slug tests)
- 8 MB flash memory, which means logging of at least 50,000 values, + a micro SD memory card of your choice (support up to 8 GB)
- primary power cell 3.6V Li-SOCI2 (SAFT LSH20) with the capacity of 13 Ah
- If we take the option to use two cells, the XYZ can run with hourly logs for 10 years without the necessity to replace the cells.
- possibility of an external power supply (suitable for the On-Line mode)
- temperatures from -40 to +60 ° C, protection rating IP67
- housing dimensions 160 x 80 x 60 mm; made of polyurethane

XYZ is also supplied with a whip antenna (FME connector), a mounting bracket and a silica gel bag (inside).
..."

And further below:

"...
- data transmission via GSM/GPRS, data on the web, SMS warning and query messages
..."

It now appears Physical access and data acquisition in the field is one option, and On-line access to data is another.
(The latter is described as follows: "data can be monitored immediately using a web application in a graphical or tabular form")

Thanks once more!

Gratefully yours,

P. :-)

Ah, a**-kissing. Works for me :-)

petusekAs for the purpose of the device, I think it does involve continuous acquisition as well as storage of data.

Yes, I thought that was the case. It's a kind of data logger, is it? It takes data from various kinds of transducers, and samples and stores it periodically. The stored data can then be uploaded for subsequent viewing and processing (analysis). The company I used to work for did some work with these, so I can give you some pretty specific suggestions for your feature list.

> Some of the features include:
Personally, I think it's redundant to use some and include together like that. It also sounds like crass advertising-speak; perhaps the person who wrote it thinks that he would be even more convincing if he wrote "Just a sample of a few of some of the many features include:" instead! I believe it is an insult to the reader. But I'll stop my rant there! I would say "Features include:".

> - 2x analogue input for the measurement of voltages and currents ranging from 100 mV (5 mA) above
Those highlighted words do not make sense. (I'm an electronics/computer guy, so I know these things :-)
I hope you can figure out what you should be saying here. If not, email me the rest of the translated manual and I should be able to figure it out.

> - 2x digital impulse (counter) or binary input
OK.

> - 2x digital output (can also be used as switches of detector/sensor feed)
Are you trying to say that these digital outputs can be used to control switches that select between different detectors or sensors? That's what it seems to mean, to me.

> - 1x USB port for ~~the~~ communication with a PC ~~, a~~ (Mini USB ~~port~~ connector)
I've changed "Mini USB port" to "Mini USB connector" and put them in parentheses, instead of after a comma.

> - 1x RS485 ~~serves to connect~~ connects to intelligent sensors communicating ~~by means of~~ using the RS485 HART protocol
Shortened forms to save space (good for bulleted lists)

> - logging interval: between 1 second and 24 hours (also suitable for pumping and slug tests)
You could say "from 1 second to 24 hours" if you prefer for brevity. And I have no idea what a "slug test" is!

> - 8 MB flash memory built in ~~, which means logging of~~ (holds at least 50,000 logged values), + plus support for a micro SD memory card ~~of your choice (support~~ up to 8 GB)
Never use a "+" symbol to mean also in formal writing!

> - primary power cell 3.6V Li-SOCI2 (SAFT LSH20) with ~~the~~ a capacity of 13 Ah
Or "... with 13 Ah capacity"

> - If we take the option to use two cells, the XYZ can run with hourly logs for 10 years without the necessity to replace the cells.
Suggest "Two cell option permits operation for 10 years without cell replacement (with hourly logging)"

> - possibility of an external power supply (suitable for the On-Line mode)
External power supply option (recommended for On-line mode)

> - temperatures from -40 to +60 ° C, protection rating IP67

..."

Regarding Physical access and data acquisition in the field, I think this refers to interrogation of the device, to get its logged data out. If so, this is different from the data acquisition function, which is performed continuously by the data logger. In that case, acquisition should not be used in that sentence; I would use interrogation. This is what I was trying to explain in my previous post.

Wonderful, KrisBlueNZ!

Thanks a lot. I'll apply some of the changes and send you the draft if that's ok. Thanks a lot in advance!

P.

P.S.: As to "Some of the features...", that was completely my mistake. What I should have written was "Some of the features the brochure mentions include", you know, as the list was mine - no silly advert intended here! :-) I was just trying to add some more information I thought might be relevant.

KrisBlueNZ · Answer

Re "some of the features ... include", please read my comment carefully. The problem is nothing to do with "the brochure mentions"; the problem is the redundancy of some and include.

GSM/GPRS data transmission
Measurements are sent to the server in at preset intervals.
Own data servers
All data is stored on our own secure servers, where it is available to you.
Physical access and data ~~acquisition~~ interrogation in the field
~~It is possible to~~ suggest You can connect a computer to the device via a the USB connector~~, or to~~ and download the data directly from the micro SD card within the device.
I assume that this is a single activity, so or is not appropriate here.

On-line access to data
Data can be monitored ~~immediately~~ suggest in real time using a web application, (suggest comma here) in a graphical or tabular form.
Technical parameters
Inputs and outputs:
- 2x analogue input for voltage and current measurements ranging from 100 mV (5 mA) and above
Highlighted part still needs to be fixed
- 2x digital inpulse (counter) or binary input
- 2x digital output (also usable as sensor power switch and other things)
Highlighted part needs to be fixed; you can't really say "and other things" in a technical document!

- 1x USB port for communication with a PC (Mini USB connector)
"Mini USB connector" should be in parentheses

- 1x RS-485 port ~~connects~~ for connection to or for use with intelligent sensors communicating using the ~~RS485~~ HART protocol
RS-485 is normally written with a hyphen, I believe. And you don't need to repeat it.

- Logging interval: ~~between~~ from 1 second to 24 hours (also suitable for pumping and slug tests)

- 8 MB ~~flash~~ Flash memory built in (holds at least 50,000 logged values) plus support for a micro SD memory card up to 8 GB

In technical material, Flash memory is always written with a capital F. I don't know how compulsory this is.

- ~~primary~~ Primary power cell 3.6V Li-SOCl2 (SAFT LSH20) with 13 Ah capacity
- ~~two~~ Two cell option permits operation for 10 years without cell replacement (with hourly logging)
- ~~external~~ External power supply option (suitable for ~~On-Line~~ Online mode)
- ~~operating~~ Operating ~~temperatures~~ temperature ~~ranging from~~ range -40 to +60~~° C~~ °C, ; protection rating IP67

- ~~housing~~ suggest Outer dimensions: 160 x 80 x 60 mm; polyurethane material

The data logger is supplied with a whip antenna (suggest which uses an FME connector), a mounting bracket and a silica gel bag (inside).

Datalogger [model number deleted] Kompakt
You may want to remove the non-English word Kompakt. Also your headings should probably use initial capitals. You have used lower case at the start of many of your sentences. I have not pointed out all the cases.

a technologically modern device, intended mainly for quick installations in field conditions, wherever accurate and reliable ~~measurements~~ measurement of levels, temperatures and flow rates directly in boreholes and water sources ~~are~~ is required.

compact dimensions
160 x 80 x 60 mm, easy installation, mobile mounting using a hanging carbine
Formatting problem here? Also, carbine may not be the word you're looking for there. It means a type of firearm.

low power consumption
5 years of operation with GSM / GPRS data transmission without the ~~necessity~~ need to replace the power cell

increased resistance
an operating temperature range of -40 to +60 °C, protection rating of IP67
Resistance has a specific meaning; you mean resistance to"the elements" (the environment). May be better to say Increased robustness or just Robust. Also, use a semicolon before protection as I mentioned earlier.

GSM/GPRS
data transmission via GSM / GPRS, data on the web, SMS warning and query messages
sensors and probes
~~connectable~~ Can be connected via ~~RS485~~ RS-485 , ~~but also~~ or analogue and digital inputs
local data collection
~~a possibility of~~ a memory micro SD card, USB communication with a PC
Re-word - perhaps "Data in internal memory and micro SD card can be uploaded by a PC through the USB port" (if that's right)

More soon, in another post.

No, I don't think it's a single activity. The author seems to imply that you can either download the data via the USB connector to your computer, or take the micro SD card out of the device, insert it in the SD slot of your computer. The conjunction used in the original is an unambiguous or ("nebo"), so that's the only interpretation that makes sense to me. Does it make sense to you now?

Could I use one the following?

- 2x analogue input for measurements of voltage (and current) ranging from 100 mV (5 mA) and higher

Yes, I was afraid so. I think I could either leave it out, or use something like the following:

"also usable as, for instance, sensor power switch"

...or maybe:

"having other possible uses, such as sensor power switch"

...or:

"usable in other ways, such as sensor power switch"

I'll be thankful for any other suggestions!

I see. I thought the author implied some kind of a default HART protocol and wanted to stress this, if you know what I mean, like that there were some other HART protocols usable with that kind of port, but only the default RS-485 HART protocol could be used with this data logger. I guess that doesn't make any sense, does it?

KrisBlueNZ wrote:

I see. I wonder, however, whether the second part (polyurethane material) is going to make any sense if we use Outer dimensions instead of a noun it actually refers to, you know, because I don't think the whole device is made of polyurethane.

As far as "housing" is concerned, it might not be the right word here, as it seems to be used with much larger objects. I thought I could use "case" instead, but I've just realized "cover" might be the best word here.

What is your opinion?

As to "Kompakt", I'll suggest that to the author, but, judging from the capitalization, it is probably part of the product name, so, perhaps, impossible to change.
As for the headings and the start of many of the sentences, my preliminary strategy was to stick with the original typography as closely as possible first, and give it a thought somewhat later, as - at least to some extent - it also seems to be a matter of layout/design of the brochure, and I think the author might want the English version to look just the same as, or very similar to, the original. On the other hand, now that I've thought about it, proper capitalization might not do any harm after all, so thanks again!

I think I should change the heading to Small Size, as even though I've read all of the brochure several times now, my experience with this kind of devices is still hopelessly insignificant, and I'm unable to decide objectively if the device deserves to be described as compact (the name of the model appears to imply just that, however). Moreover, the original doesn't really use kompaktní (an apparent loanword appearing here and then in the world of advertising, although most people are only vaguely aware of its meaning, just that it sounds expert (= attractive) to them!

). I was being too "creative", I'm afraid!

As for hanging carbine, you're right again! I ahd no idea what the right word was - hanging carbine was sort of a quazi-literal translation (carbine has turned out to be false friend in this context!) I am now inclined to believe, so to speak, the right word might be snap-hook. Would that be an acceptable solution to my problem?

As for the formatting, I don't know. The original has it just like that. It's not clear, for example, whether it should be easy installation and mobile mounting, or easy mounting and mobile installation (the latter option would be a word-to-word translation, yet montáž can mean mounting, assembly as well as installation, and instalace can mean installation, fitting and sometimes also mounting, which is pretty confusing).
I think the author simply lists what appears to be a mixture of benefits that are the result of the device being "small" (whence "easy installation,mobile mounting"), and the actual reasons (i.e. the dimensions, hanging "carbine" etc.). True, it's confusing, and I'm not sure how to handle it.

How about the following?

Small Size
Dimentions of 160 x 80 x 60 mm and snap-hook ensure easy installation and mobile mounting

Sounds silly, doesn't it?

I see. I'd heard and seen expressions like water-resistent, scratch-resistent, corrosion-resistent, hight-temperature resistant, so I thought resistence might be the right word. I knew, of course, resistence also meant electric resistence, but I didn't realize there might be any ambiguity (given the explanation below the heading).
Robustness is a perfect word!

KrisBlueNZ wrote:

Re-word - perhaps "Data in internal memory and micro SD card can be uploaded by a PC through the USB port" (if that's right)

I now think (thanks to your patient explanation!) it should be Local Data Querying (if that's correct). So, rather than uploading the data, it is (as far as I can tell) about downloading it to one's PC (is to the right preposition?) either directly from the device via the USB, or indirectly from the SD card that you can take out of the device, perhaps, and insert it in your PC's SD slot. At least, that's how I picture it.

On the other hand (wow, language IS the ultimate tool of human thinking!), I've just realized that the data can be transmitted both ways, can't it? So it's both downloading and uploading. The original heading says, however, it's about collecting the data from the device, so...I don't know.

Wow! Thanks a lot for all your comments and suggestions, Kris. Your help is highly appreciated!

I can't wait to see the rest of your reply!

This is all extremely helpful to me.

GSM / GPRS data transmission
~~If we use~~ the built-in quad-band GSM / GPRS modem transmits measurement data over TCP/IP to the server and sends alarm messages via SMS.

Data can be sent either immediately after the measurement (requires external power supply), or at specific intervals (daily, weekly, etc.), or immediately upon reaching the alarm values.

By setting the alarm messages (up to 4 ~~degrees~~ levels or maybe priorities) ~~it is possible to send warnings~~ warnings can be sent to up to 16 ~~phone~~ suggest telephone numbers when set values are exceeded (or not reached). If you ~~find~~ suggest don't like the preset ~~form of messages~~ message format ~~unacceptable~~, you can create ~~a message text of~~ your own.

SIM card and tariff
For ~~the~~ GSM operation both flat ~~as well as~~ and prepaid SIM cards can be used. The ~~information about the amount of~~ remaining credit ~~as well as~~ and the status of the GSM network in the field can be found on the Datalogger display, via SMS query, or from the server.

USB port for PC ~~connection~~
For ~~the needs of~~ direct communication with a PC, the Datalogger is equipped with a USB connector protected by a waterproof cap. Communication is protected by several levels of passwords, each ~~of them~~ providing a different ~~level of logging rights~~ maybe you mean login rights, but this would be better replaced with set of permissions or privilege level ~~to access~~ for accessing ~~the~~ values and making configuration changes.

measurement channels
Each channel can be named as needed; data can be recorded ~~using different periods~~ at varying intervals (1 second to 24 hours), ; measurement (analogue value, counter, binary status, engine hours here in New Zealand, the normal expression is "equipment hours") and/or logging modes. ~~It is possible to~~ suggest You can create virtual channels for every measured channel (i.e. channels whose values are obtained by calculating the value of a single or multiple measurement channels) and set alarms to indicate up to four limit states.
The highlighted section needs to be re-worded. The examples (next) explain the device's capabilities pretty well; here, all you need to say is "whose values are obtained by calculation."

Examples: difference between two channels, flow calculation, averages, maxima, minima, moving average, moving sum, gradient alarm (up to four degrees), hysteresis, concentration of measurement period in case of excess, output switching or measurement of another channel in case of alarm, alarm SMS messages to up to 16 GSM numbers (creation of user-defined alarm messages).
Somewhere that sentence changed from being a list of calculations the device can perform, to a list of features ("alarm SMS messages to up to 16 GSM numbers").

Micro SD card for memory expansion
~~If you do not use GSM transmission because, for example, GSM networks are unavailable, or the internal memory for 50,000 values is insufficient~~ If you need to store more than 50,000 values between data uploads, you can use the removable memory slot for micro SD card. Datalogger memory can thus be extended to records spanning over several years. Micro SD card can also be used for data transfer and complete data logger configuration without the need for a PC in the field.

I think the first part needs a rewrite.
Install a Micro SD card with up to 8 GB of extra memory to store more than 50,000 values between data uploads, or record for longer (a year or more). The Micro SD card can also be used for data transfer and complete data logger configuration without the need for a PC in the field.
Also check for consistency in your use of datalogger vs. data logger.

increased resistance
operating temperature ~~ranging~~ ~~from~~ : -40 to +60 °C, ; protection rating of : IP67
As I said earlier, resistance has a specific meaning in this field; you mean increased or improved resistance to environmental factors, or perhaps increased environmental protection.

device design

~~Datalogger, in a case made of~~ polyurethane case, display (what type? LCD?) and four pushbuttons ~~on the foil keyboard,~~ (unnecessary) ~~allows an~~ for easy control of the device and its measuring sensors and manual parameter setting. ~~Parameter settings can be done directly in the field without the need for computer technology.~~ Its compact dimensions of 160 x 80 x 60 mm allow for an easy installation, for example using a carbine.
As I mentioned before, I don't know what carbine means in this context.

I see. You're right again, Kris. I merely translated (or tried to translate) what the original said without noticing textual problems like that. I'm sure the author won't mind if I follow your advice. Thanks!

Right. I have no idea, however, how to cope with it as, again, this is precisely how the original has it. I can either point this out to the author, or...maybe I should split the list somehow.

Sensors and Probes
A great advantage is the ability to connect intelligent sensors that communicate via ~~RS485~~ RS-485 using the HART protocol and have ~~better~~ more advanced features than simple (optional) analogue probes. It is very easy to work with a connected probe after automatic loading; it is even possible to connect several of these intelligent probes and devices to the ~~RS485~~ RS-485 loop at the same time.
What does automatic loading mean? That sentence is rather vague; perhaps a clearer description of what automatic loading means here would enable me to explain it clearly but efficiently.

Normally when RS-485 devices are connected together they are referred to as a bus, not a loop, but loop may be more accurate in this case.
~~There are also both analogue and digital inputs~~ Analogue and digital inputs are provided for ~~connecting~~ connection to all commonly used sensors.
Probe terminals are to be connected to the ***** terminals inside the Datalogger and their cables are to be secured by tightening the respective terminal. Inside the housing, there is a bag of silica gel, which captures any moisture not only within the Datalogger, but also in the capillary tube of the level probe. Good.

The repeated use of are to be seems unnecessarily authoritative; I would state the sentence directly: "Connect probe wires to the ***** terminals inside the datalogger and tighten the screws to secure them properly" or at least change are to be to should be or must be.

low power consumption
The measurement data logger can be powered by two Li-SOCI2 primary cells that can be easily replaced in the field; ~~thanks to this,~~ these ensure operation for at least five years, even in if the GSM network is used~~, operation is ensured for more than 5 years~~.
~~In addition, the GSM mode allows comfortable setting of the measuring stations by sending the configuration file created for the measuring station on our web site.~~
The datalogger can also be configured via GSM.
(That's not really related to the heading, "low power consumption".)
Data is recorded in the data logger memory as daily files in an easily readable text form, which ~~helps~~ enables fast searching. The ~~structure of the~~ data file contains an identification header (serial number, name, measuring channels) and is similar to the data structure of the older NOEL-type stations.
It's hard to know exactly what was meant by data structure there.
~~In the memory of~~ The Datalogger also records ~~a file of~~ operational logs ~~is also created~~, ~~storing information on~~ recording settings or parameter changes ~~made~~ and on system failures. new line here
Data transmission may be encrypted in order to increase data security.
