7.3.1 Set language
Language-dependent objects
When transferring the project from the configuration computer, up to five languages can be
loaded on the HMI device simultaneously. The Asian language variants are also supported.
If properly configured, it is possible to switch between the individual languages online at any
time. You can also display language-dependent objects in another language during runtime,
if properly configured.
The following are language-dependent:
• Alarms
• Screens
• Text lists
• Help texts
• Date/time
• Decimal symbol
• Static texts
Requirements
If you wish to change the language for project texts on the HMI device, the following
conditions must be met:
• The language must be available for the configuration on the HMI device.
The languages available on the HMI device are defined during configuration.
• An operating element to switch languages must have been configured.
Select languages
Immediately after activating the operating element to change languages, all the language-
dependent objects are displayed in the new language.
Two different types of language change can be configured:
1. Each time the operating element to change languages is actuated, the HMI device
switches to the next language in sequence.
2. After pressing the operating element to change languages, a specific language is
selected.
