Alarm and keyboard logs can be processed in both the native and the local languageThe language of the end user. Runtime display items such as alarm descriptions, button text, keyboard/alarm logs, graphic text, Cicode strings and so on can be displayed in the local language, even though they may have been configured in the language of the developer (native language).. This means that both native and local users can read the historical logs. The logs can employ the same device, or separate devices.
Logs in the local language are produced using the standard field names. For example, if {NAME} {DESC} {COMMENT} is entered in the format field of an alarm category, the alarm name, description and comment of alarms in that category will be logged in the local language.
All fields which support the automatic language change facility can also be logged in the native language. To do so, just precede the field name with NATIVE. For example, to log the name, description and comment of a category of alarms, enter {NATIVE_NAME} {NATIVE_DESCRIPTION} {NATIVE_COMMENT} in the format field for that category.
To log both native and local to the same device, just enter the standard fields, and the native fields together in the format field. To log them to different devices, use a Group of two devices, and enter the local fields as the format for one, and the native fields as the format for the other.
