Foreign language alarm and message texts
If you create foreign language alarm and message texts, change over into the desired

Configuring alarm and message texts via alarm text files

You have the option of creating customized alarm and message texts using alarm text files
and adapting these.
The alarm texts are set up in standard format (".ts" format) by SINUMERIK Operate. The
".ts" format is XML-based.
You can create and edit these files not only with SINUMERIK Operate, but also externally on
a PC.
Note
If you wish to edit alarm text files on a PC, use an editor supporting UTF-8 coding.
