Project documentation

With RS Logix 5000 software, version 17 and later, you have the option to display

project documentation, such as tag descriptions and rung comments in any

supported localized language. You can store project documentation for multiple

languages in a single project file rather than in language-specific project files. You

define all the localized languages that the project will support and set the current,
default, and optional custom localized language. The software uses the default

language if the current language's content is blank for a particular component of

the project. However, you can use a custom language to tailor documentation to a

specific type of project file user.

Enter the localized descriptions in your project, either when programming in that

language or by using the import/export utility to translate the documentation

offline and then import it back into the project. Once you enable project

documentation in application, you can dynamically switch between languages as
you use the software.
