Export objects not assigned to an area

System Objects typically are not assigned to an Area. These are:

• Platform Objects

• Device Integration Objects

• Engine Objects

For purposes of language export, these System Objects form their own "Area" or become notification distributors for the purpose of sending alarms. Exporting System Objects follows these important conventions:

• System Objects can only be exported from the Galaxy menu. They cannot be selected and exported using a context menu.

• System Objects can only be exported by exporting alarm comments for all areas.

To export alarm comments for all areas

1. Using the System Platform IDE, open the Galaxy for which you want to export alarm comments.

2. From the ribbon, select Galaxy, then select Export.

3. Select Localization, then select Alarm Fields. The Export Alarm Messages dialog box appears.

4. Configure the export settings:

   1. Select the Export all alarm messages to a single file radio button.

   2. Check the Export untranslated alarm messages only check box if you have already exported, translated and re-imported your language files by Area and you want to export only newer, untranslated messages. Otherwise, leave the check box unchecked.

   3. In the Language to export pull-down list, select the language to export. You can export only one language at a time.

   4. In the Destination folder box, type the folder to which you want to export the language file. Select the browse icon to select an existing folder or create a new folder.

5. Select Export. The export progress box appears.

6. Select Close when the export completes.
