German term or phrase: prozess-fern
Hi Proz-Peeps!

This term occurs within the following context:

Prozessleitsysteme (engl. Process control system PCS) dienen zum Führen verfahrenstechnischer Anlagen in Herstellungs- oder Laborprozessen. Sie können in prozess-nahe Komponenten mit Anschluss an die Feldtechnik und prozess-fernen Visualisierungskomponenten (Schnittstelle Mensch-Maschine) gegliedert sein.

The term "prozess-nah" or "process-oriented" in English would seem to provide a clue. But I have been unable to find a suitable term for "prozess-fern" in my research.

I know there must be someone out there who translates this sort of thing all the time and knows exactly what this term is in English. If so, kindly chime in! :o)

Vielen Dank im Voraus,
