Thank you! Now it makes complete sense. I'd assumed that's what it
meant, but I couldn't quite work it out and I'd pause and think about it
when I saw it in the manuals. I think in English the "X and Y
respectively" would be common if you're referring to something like
"Linear and Exponential on X and Y respectively". On the other hand - no
reason to change the way you're writing it, this is extremely minor - I'm
just grateful it's translated into English at all since I can't speak/read
German!

Speaking of the .pdf manuals - they are wonderful resources. Especially
being able to read them before purchasing. I've printed out the majority
of them for researching which modules will go into my system. Thanks to
everyone involved with writing (and translating) them.
