French term or phrase: retard programmé
What does retard programmé mean here? Does it mean 'programmed dwell'? I guess I am finding the terms hard to relate to.

See "Permettent de mémoriser et de contrôler visuellement les températures.
Programmation depuis un PC grâce à un logiciel. Le démarrage de l’acquisition se fait en mode différé, avec **retard programmé** ou avec une clé magnétique.
