boutonnerie et voyants d'ordre de positionnement
français vers anglais
Technique / Génie
Ingénierie (général)
Could you help me with the following words, please ?
"boutonnerie et voyants d'ordre de positionnement"
I translate "boutonnerie" by "buttons and "voyants" by "warning lights".
For me, the problems are "d'ordre de positionnement". I don't known how translate these terms and if they are only related to "voyants" or if they are related to both words ("boutonnerie" and "voyants").
The whole text talks about a unit which sets the incidence angle of a wind turbine's blade (I don't known if it is clear) and the phrase to translate is part of a technical description of the unit's interface.
Thank you in advance.

push buttons and indicators as per the order of positioning
I feel that these push buttons and indicators are positioned as per the sequence of the operations to be done.

positioning control buttons and indicators
I feel sure 'ordre de positionnement' qualifies both terms.
My biggest qualm is to know why the writer chose to use 'ordre' instead of the more usual 'command'?
Do note that although 'voyant' can in some cases indeed mean 'warning light', that only really applies where there is some specific warning function; otherwise, the more general term 'indicator' (a more literal translation of 'voyant') is probably safest.
