Configuring The "Language Selection" Softkey - Siemens SINUMERIK 840D sl Commissioning Manual

08/2005
We recommend making the entry in the DG.INI in the USER or OEM directory.
The image must be located in one or more of the following directories:
;F:\User\Icons\640
;F:\User\Icons\800
;F:\User\Icons\1024
;F:\Oem\Icons\640.
;F:\Oem\Icons\800.
;F:\Oem\Icons\1024.
It is automatically adjusted to the current screen resolution. A version of the image
must be located in the directory containing the images in the current resolution.

2.4.5 Configuring the "Language Selection" Softkey

Application
If there are more than 2 language options on the control, the "Select language"
softkey can be configured in the main "Startup" in order to change among the
language options via the menu.
The entry "SkSelectLngInsteadSkChangeLng" in the "IB.INI" file in the
"[LANGUAGE]" section controls whether the "Select Language" softkey in the main
"Startup" screen should be replaced by the "Change language" softkey. If there is
no "SkSelectLngInsteadSkChangeLng" entry, only "Change language" is available.
The values of "SkSelectLngInsteadSkChangeLng" have the following meanings:
False:
True:
If the setting is TRUE (Select language), the following values should be added to
the entries in the "[LANGUAGE]" section in the "MMC.INI" file:
LanguageList= ... , GR
FontList= ... ,
FontListKO= ... ,
LBList= ... ,
Note
With Select language the first language is not provided as a choice. By listing the
first language in the language list again (and therefore also in the corresponding
font settings) the first language also appears in the language selection menu.
