All AVEVA Instrumentation application modules and project databases support foreign language data entry using Unicode text including a mixture of languages (for example, English and Russian in the same dialog, datasheet, drawing and/or report).
Additionally, AVEVA Instrumentation supports translation of the data grid column headings of the user Interface into any foreign language. AVEVA Instrumentation has full translations for English, Korean, Chinese (Simplified), Japanese, Russian, Spanish and French provided with it.
If a company would like to update any translations or add a new foreign language, AVEVA can provide users with a software tool that enables an engineer to update translations for all dialog captions/labels by entering the appropriate text in a desired language. This translator tool is available free of charge, however the translations will need to be returned so they can be included in AVEVA Instrumentation after we regenerate the associated language files.
Note: Changing the language only changes the header titles of data grid columns, it will not change other labels etc. in the interface, any data that has already been input by Users, or templates (so none of the drawings, schedules, or datasheets that use those templates will change).
Note: Windows Region and Language settings support displaying decimal symbols as commas. In AVEVA Instrumentation decimal symbols are currently displayed as decimal points regardless of this setting.
