Dutch term or phrase: uitleesmogelijkjheden
Of a piece of equipment (uitgebreide uitleesmogelijkheden), in this case a vacuum degasser. I assume it means there are many ways you can read (interpret) the info on the control panel. Can't think how to word it without getting too wordy... 'extensive (data) read-out options'?

Explanation:
You get this with satnav equipment and 'glass cockpits' in aircraft, where one screen can display readings from a variety of different systems, or different types of display (e.g. virtual instruments).

uitleesmogelijkheden
data export options


Explanation:
Often this is used to mean exporting data, i.e. the data is transferred from the equipment to a computer for further processing and analysis.

-> "Door de modulaire opbouw zijn er diverse uitleesmogelijkheden, zoals:
- de groene sleutel, dit is de standaard methode en met name geschikt voor kleinere wagenparken
- FM Dect, een lokaal netwerk bij de thuisbasis wat draadloos uitlezen mogelijk maakt. Dit systeem van uitlezen is met name geschikt voor grotere wagenparken.
- GSM module, deze maakt het mogelijk om altijd de voertuiginformatie uit te lezen. Het dataverkeer is via GSM Data dus snel en betrouwbaar. "

Asker: My apologies, just found the company's UK website, where they say "numerous facilities for reading system information". The site is obviously a translation, but I assume (hope) the translator knew what he/she was talking about!

  -> Different than what? We weren't given much to go on... And the definition you provide in your own answer confirm the meaning of "extract data". That's what export means.

options for electing data


Explanation:
I think it is this because "uitlezen" in this context means "elect"'. The data are first retrieved from the computer and then noted.

Uitlezen = "(informatie uit een computer) opvragen en laten noteren".

Asker: Thanks, but the site I referred to above leaves no doubt that the term is used here, albeit incorrectly, for reading the information on a control panel.
