Language assignment in language-dependent texts

Language ID in the file name of language-dependent texts
Language-dependent texts are saved in TS files in SINUMERIK Operate. There is a
separate file for each language which is assigned via the language ID in the file name.
● <Name><LanguageID>.ts
● E. g.: oem_alarms_plc_eng.ts
Assignment of the DB2 alarm texts to project languages
If you import an alarm file into the TIA Portal, this will be assigned to all of the relevant
activated project languages (or language variants), depending on the language ID in the file
name. For example, if you have activated the project languages "English (USA)" and
"English (Great Britain)" and imported an oem_alarms_plc_eng.ts file, these alarm texts are
mapped to the two project languages.
Availability of languages in SINUMERIK Operate

you need additional languages, you can order them separately:
