Wrong language in System Management panel

[NikolayLevchenko]

Hi,

I have a project set up with 3 languages.
English is the first one in config file.

Code: Select all

langs = "en_GB.utf8"
langs = "ru_RU.utf8"
langs = "de_CH.utf8"

As expected, most of WinCC OA is displayed in English. But for some reason, System Management shows in German. What is the problem here and can it be fixed?

The information for the textes is saved at the dp elements (Titles, Descriptions) of the datapoints defined for dptype _SysMgm.
Maybe the information saved at these elements is not correct.
Can you please check the information saved at the dp elements.

Is it a new project?

Best Regards

I've created a brand new project and I think I can see now where the problem is.

When the project is created the order of languages is like this:

Code: Select all

langs = "de_CH.utf8"
langs = "en_GB.utf8"
langs = "ru_RU.utf8"

and the internal DP looks like:


Then I edit my config to place English first

Code: Select all

langs = "en_GB.utf8"
langs = "ru_RU.utf8"
langs = "de_CH.utf8"

and after that the internal DP is messed up:

From the help file:

CAUTION

In a multilingual project it is forbidden to change either the order of the languages or the coding manually (UTF-8, ISO standard coding and other codings) in the config file. WinCC OA does not support mixing different character coding within the same project.

That explains it. Looks like the proper way to do it is:

Code: Select all

# Project languages
langs = "de_CH.utf8"
langs = "en_GB.utf8"
langs = "ru_RU.utf8"

# Default project language
lang = "en_GB.utf8"
