nastaveným

Nastaveným is the instrumental singular form of the Czech adjective past participle nastavený, which means set, configured, or adjusted. It is used to describe something that has been configured or prepared and can function as an attribute in a noun phrase or as a predicative complement in a sentence. The term is common in technical, IT, engineering, and everyday language when referring to settings, parameters, or configurations.

Grammatically, nastavený is the masculine form; its instrumental singular is nastaveným. This form is used with masculine nouns in the instrumental case (for example s nastaveným časovým intervalem – with the configured time interval) and with neuter nouns. The feminine instrumental singular is nastavenou (e.g., s nastavenou hodnotou).

Usage around Czech language tends to be technical or administrative, where it describes values or states that have been preselected or prepared. It often appears in discussions of software configurations, device settings, or calibrated processes. It contrasts with related terms such as upravený (modified) or nastavení (setting), which refer to the act of configuring or the configuration itself, rather than the resulting configured state.

Etymology: nastaveným derives from the verb nastavit (to set up, adjust) with the adjectival participle suffix -ný. The construction shares a common pattern with other Czech past participles used as adjectives, and it is closely related to the noun nastavení (setting) as its semantic opposite in some contexts.
