French to English Tech/Engineering Computers: Software optical lenses
Does this mean "mutiplot" and if so, how would you translate "le logiciel est multi traceurs"? This is from a text about a computerized order-taking system for optical lenses:

Une haute connectivé

Le logiciel:
- transfere l'ensemble des informations saisies aux meuleuses
- est multi traceurs
- utilise le format propiétaire X
Proposed translations (English)

multiplot / multitrack

It depends on the context - unfortunately there is not sufficient context.

"multiplot" if it refers to several pencils writing at the same time.

However, "multitrack" or "multi-signal" if "traceur" refers to a signal acquisition channel that tracks the values of a sensor.
