Manually modifying attributes
Several attributes available in the software, are formed with specific
characters which indicate the language, the index or the data index.
#AIO_0_TZ_1_L1: the attribute type (in
this example, Input/Output).
#AIO_0_TZ_1_L: the order number in the
attribute type (in this example, the first I/O).
#AIO_0_TZ_1_L1: the translatable user data
1 associated with the previous value (in this example, the first translatable
data of the first I/O).
#AIO_0_TZ_1_L1:
the language of the previous value (in the example, the language of the
first translatable data of the first I/O).
Index: The index character is
an order number in the attribute type defined by the previous code. 0 is the first, 1
is the second...
Data index: The data index character
follows the code that identifies the data type (TX:
User data and TZ: Translatable
user data). The 0 propagates the
value of the first User data (or translatable user data), the 1,
the value of the second User data (or translatable user data)...
Language: the L1
propagates the text in the main language of the electrical project, the
L2, the second language... You
can force a language by replacing these characters by the language code
(EN - FR - ES...). For example, if you want the text always appears in
English, whatever the electrical project language, replace the characters
by EN.
Some commands let you manage these codes. These commands are displayed
according to the type of attribute you selected.
