calibration Explanation: I think "patronar" means the same as "calibrar"; it is evidently related to "patrón": "Frecuentemente escuchamos que alguien quiere conocer “la incertidumbre de su instrumento” a través del proceso de calibración, o alguno de los términos que inventamos o nos enseñaron mal para sustituirlo, por ejemplo: “patronar”, “patronizar”, “trazar”, “trazabilizar”, “dar la trazabilidad”, “contrastar”, etc." http://www.sicesrl.com.ar/notas.htm "Siempre, pero siempre hay que patronar antes de tomar una medida" http://www.sumincol.net/inicio/files/deformimetro.pdf (p. 58, p. 7 of file) "NOTE: Before taking a measurement, follow the calibration instructions to ensure accurate readings." https://greenair.com/old/pdf/ec-98311-312-inst-2002-8x14.pdf |
