2.1.6 Configuring the user texts using Reydisp Language Editor
As default the relay uses the text descriptions in all menus as they appear in this manual. These descriptions can
be changed by installing a user language file in the relay, allowing the user to edit all views to meet their needs
and provide easier operation.
The Reyrolle Language File Editor tool and its user manual are installed as part of the Reydisp Evolution software
package. They can be found in your pc as sub menus of the Reydisp Evolution installation.
Figure 2.1-5 PC Language File Editor
When the software is opened a โnew project from templateโ should be used to generate your file. The file will
display all default โOriginalโ text descriptions in one column and the โAlternativeโ text in the other column. The
descriptions in the โAlternativeโ list can be changed and will be used in the relays menu structures. Once the file
is complete, a language file can be created and loaded into the relay using the โsend file to relayโ function. The
communication properties in the software and on the relay must be set. The relay must be restarted after the file
is installed.
To activate the language file it must be selected in the relay configuration menu, the โOriginalโ file is the file
labelled โENGLISHโ and the new file will be displayed using the file name allocated by the user.
Care should be taken to ensure a unique file name is given including a version control reference. The user will be
prompted to restart the relay to activate the language file.
Please refer to the Language Editor Manual for further guidance.
