German term or phrase: einlesen
I've encountered this word several times in a document introducing innovations in weaving machines.

"Durch die Entwicklung eines sehr kompakten Jacquardselektors mit zugstarken Magneten und sehr schlanken Einlesehaken entstand eine überraschend leichte und kleinbauende Jacquardsteuerung."

and

"Das neue Magnetsystem der Facheinlesung reduziert die Anzugsenergie beim Einlesen der Platinen."

Does anyone know what this term means?

Notes to answerer
Asker: And "feed" would also make sense with "Anzugsenergie" (pulling the hooks with the strength of the magnet).

agree  philgoddard: Insertion is fine too. But it's not a computer term here.
