About the alarm comments language file

The alarm comment language switching feature exports alarm comments, messages and other data to a .txt file. That file can be edited directly, but working in a text editor is typically more difficult and prone to errors.

• All files export as Unicode. We recommend that you save the exported files as Unicode.

• We recommend that you edit the .txt file using Microsoft Excel. Be sure to save the edited file as a .txt file.

The language file name is not user-configurable. The file naming convention for alarm comment export is:

Galaxy_<GalaxyName>_<localeID>_Alarm_Comments.txt

or

Galaxy_<GalaxyName>_<AreaName>_<localeID>_Alarm_ Comments.txt

where the locale ID is the selected language decimal identification number.

For example, if the Galaxy name is "TestSample" and the exported language is Chinese, the language file name would be Galaxy_TestSample_2052_Alarm_Comments.txt. The locale ID for Chinese is 2052.

For example, if the Galaxy name is "TestSample" and the Area name is "Area001", and the exported language is German, the language file name would be Galaxy_TestSample_Area001_1031_Alarm_Comments.txt.
