Export to an existing alarm comment file

After you export your alarm and tag comments for offline translation, you may need to make changes to your application that require you to export alarm and tag comments again. For more information, see Export alarm comments for translation.

If you export more than one time to the same directory, the Confirm File Replace dialog box appears.

Select Yes to update the existing dictionary files with any new strings and language information added since you exported last. If the existing dictionary file contains translations for any phrases and you imported it to InTouch previously, those translations are preserved. If you deleted any phrases from the application since the last export, they are removed from the dictionary file.

Select Yes to All to update existing dictionary files for all languages configured in the InTouch HMI.

Select No or No to All to prevent overwriting the existing file or the existing files for all languages, respectively.

The existing translations for any alarm comments, alarm fields and tag comments are preserved if they are exported again.
