Notes to answerer

Asker: Thanks for the suggestion, but this is more likely to be hardware as it comes from the telecoms field and is somewhere in the network a major operator runs.

50 mins confidence:

trigger

Explanation:
I'm suggesting this because most of the time I have to translate "activar" in telecom contexts, "trigger" turns out to be the best option.
Nevertheless, among others, Routledge Technical Dictionary gives these options:
activador m
AUTO governor
CARBÓN activator
CINEMAT, ENERG RENOV governor
ING ELÉC activator, governor
