Alarm Data Localization

Alarm data localization is saved in user accounts on alarm servers. For each user account, the last login action across the network determines the current language setting of the user. If the same user account is used simultaneously with different languages on each of the display clients the runtime display may show a mixture of languages.

For example: Client A , Client B, Client C all log in (different clients) with the user name “Operator”:

1. Client A logs into “Operator” with French. Once login has been successful, the display contents in Client A are in French, including both UI and alarm data.
2. Client B then logs into “Operator” with English. Once login has been successful, the display contents in Client B are in English, including both UI and alarm data. However, the alarm data in Client A is in English instead of French. Thus Client A would display both French and English even though Client A has logged in with French.
3. Client C then logs into “Operator” with German. Once login has been successful, the display contents in Client C are in German, including both UI and alarm data. However, the alarm data in Client A and Client B are in German instead of French or English. Thus Client A would display both French and German even though Client A has logged in with French, and Client B would display both English and German.

In this scenario allow Client A, Client B and Client C to use separate accounts, such as “OperatorA”, “OperatorB”, “OperatorC”. This will then allow each user to view the runtime display in their preferred language.
