OEM text in several languages.
16.7 OEM text in several languages.
By default, the texts defined by the OEM are in a single language and stored in several programs:
PLCMSG Texts for PLC messages.
PLCERR Texts for PLC errors.
P999995 Texts and titles used by all the OEM screens.
P999994 Help texts of the OEM screens or cycles.
To have texts and messages in several languages, they must be grouped in a single program and
set general parameter MSGFILE (P131) with that program number.
The MSGFILE program may be in user memory or in the hard disk (KeyCF). If it is in several places,
it takes the one in user memory.
If any of these texts is in Russian or mainland Chinese, the file format must be converted from
Unicode to a special Unicode customized for the Fagor CNC. Use WinDNC to do this conversion.
To display these messages, besides doing this conversion, the CNC must be set in one of the
following languages:
English.
Chinese.
Russian.
Note: Russian or Chinese comments cannot be displayed in a program even if that program has
been converted using WinDNC.
MSGFILE program structure
On each line, a text is defined preceded by ";" the "text number", a blank space and the "$" sign.
Examples:
;116 $Axis feedrate (F)
;117 $Tool (T)
The texts must be grouped by subjects and languages.
The labels identify a group with a mnemonic in brackets and preceded by ";"
;[PLCMSG] Texts for PLC messages (up to 256).
;[PLCERR] Texts for PLC errors (up to 265).
;[CO999995] Texts and titles used by all the OEM screens (up to 256).
;[CO999994] Help texts of the OEM screens or cycles (up to 256).
;[OEMMSG] Other texts used in OEM programs (up to 768).
Converting standard Unicode files into Fagor Unicode format requires WinDNC version 5.1. This
conversion is not possible with previous WinDNC versions.
