You have the option of distributing the online help for user alarms over several HTML files.
1. Create an XML file with the name "sinumerik_alarm_plc_pmc.xml" in the following
directory: /oem/sinumerik/hmi/hlp/<lng>/ or /user/sinumerik/hmi/hlp/<lng>/
<lng> stands for the language code, e.g. deu, eng, etc. When you create a language
directory, use the language code from the table in Section Supported languages

and the corresponding HTML files.
