regolazione

GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
Italian term or phrase:regolazione
English translation:adjustment/calibration

Law/Patents - Patents / sensing device with proximity sensor
Italian term or phrase: regolazione
"Detto sensore di prossimità 11 produrrà in uscita una forma d’onda di tensione avente una frequenza variabile in modo proporzionale alla vicinanza di un corpo perturbante a detto terminale flottante 10 e questa variazione di frequenza è il parametro su cui si basa **la regolazione effettuata** dal dispositivo secondo la presente invenzione"

The text is littered with "regolazione" and I'm not quite sure how to translate it. Any suggestions? regulation....adjustment...control?

Here's another snippet:
"detta CPU 24 esegue un secondo controllo 53 atto a stabilire se la regolazione da parte dell’utente ha avuto termine. L’elemento discriminante di questo secondo controllo può essere, ad esempio, la velocità con cui l’oggetto perturbante si è spostato (velocità bassa = **regolazione** in corso; velocità alta = la **regolazione** è terminata, l’utente ha tolto la sua mano dal campo di influenza del sensore di prossimità avendo raggiunto il punto voluto di **regolazione**) "

It seems to refer to the fact of establishing an operating parameter, thus calbrating the device wthin a range to produce a response according to the parameter. Watch out for the cases in which it refers to regulation or norms
