I have never done a lot of language switching work in controllers or HMI systems and need a little advice.
I speaking of rockwell equipment and I know language switching is fairly easy in most of the HMI families but what about the plc's?
Is there a easy way to make tags and comments in logix 5000 change to another language?
What brings this up is I have a piece of german equipment with a slc 5/05 and all the comments are german and I need it to be in english. Correct me if I am wrong but there is no way in logix 500 to do language switching of comments is there?
What would be the best method to convert? I was thinking of exporting the DB and use google translate to chnage the comments and page titles and then reimport. Or is there a better way?
We don't use any language switching here at all so I am suffering from a lack odf experience on this one.
Any advice would be much appreciated.
