The default English texts are still displayed in Alarm Control - and the texts are linked without any separator, e.g. "incommingacknowledgedoutgoing" (or something like this). Can the alarm status texts for the Alarm Control be translated? Btw: the hint of the input field in Runtime settings \ Alarms says (e.g.): "The help topic 'CTHMIALARM@721320' (0xB01A8) is not available". Is TIA18 still an underbaked cake? [snip] Win10pro, TIA V18.0.0.1, MTP1200 Unified Comfort, indended for Czech end-users, mostly "not Unified". Thank you for any quick functional solution proposal preferably before the release of V20 . trapper66 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Split from Is it possible to translate the Alarm State in Alarm View table?.

Discrete alarms? Analog alarms? User-defined controller alarms? System events? System-defined controller alarms? What languages are configured for the project and what is the device configuration? What device version is configured in your project and what image version is running on the panel? Kind regards Stefan

Alarm system itself is working fine, the only problem is with the "untraslatable" texts in the column "alarm status" in Alarm Control. Please, see the attached image. I have defined texts in the Runtime settings \ Alarms, but they are obviusly not used. T. Attachment Screen Shot 10-16-23 at 01.24 PM.PNG (283 Downloads)
