OMRON CHAPTER 13 – Multilingual Features
Release 2.0 Page 227
Data Log Viewer
The Data Log Viewer is also supplied with translations for the 15 runtime languages. If launched
from the Runtime application, it automatically starts in the same language as the runtime application.
If it is started from the “Start” button, it always starts in English. The language can be selected from
the standard dialog from the menu “Options|Language Settings”.
Adding unsupported runtime languages
Although an impressive16 runtime languages are supported, you may require a language not listed. A
developer can easily add support for further languages:
1, 2, 3…
1. Copy the file “English.lng” in the installed application folder (default is “C:\Program
Files\Omron\CX-Supervisor”) and rename the copy with the language name, e.g.
“American.lng”.
2. Translate the text between quotes. Note that formatting characters like %s or %d
indicate a position for inserted text or numbers so should be left in the relevant place.
Also the ‘&’ character used in menus signifies the keyboard shortcut for the item so
select an appropriate character in the translated language
3. The Runtime will now automatically show any new files with .LNG extension in the
“Language Settings” dialog.
4. Repeat steps 1 and 2 above for the same file with the .LND extension. This provides
the translations for the Data Log Viewer.
5. Create a new language file for the user defined text as described in the section User
Defined Text above.
To deploy this language to a new machine, just install CX-Supervisor as normal, and then copy the
.LNG and .LND file to the installed application folder. These languages will then be available for all
applications run on this machine. When copying the application files also include the newly
translated UDT files.
