Summary of steps for setting up language switching
These are the tasks involved in setting up language switching for an application:
1. Install the Windows languages that the application will use.
2. Select a language, in which to create the application and its components.
3. Add the languages you want the application to support.
4. Export the application text strings for translation.
5. Import translated text strings for each of the supported languages.
6. Provide ways for operators to switch between the application languages at run time.
To set up FactoryTalk View SE Clients:
1. On client computers, install the Windows languages that the application supports.
2. In client setup files, specify an initial language for the client to run in.

About FactoryTalk Security permissions
If FactoryTalk Security services are used to secure parts of an application, to perform
certain tasks, users must have the necessary security permissions.
For example, to create or modify the properties of an application, you must at least be
allowed the Common actions Read, List Children, Write, and Create Children, at the
FactoryTalk Directory that manages the application.
If you receive a FactoryTalk Security message while trying to perform such a task, contact
your system administrator about permissions you might require.
For an overview of FactoryTalk Security services, see Chapter 5, Setting up security. For
details, see the FactoryTalk Security Help.
You can add languages to an application before or after you export the application’s text
strings. To translate multiple languages at once, add languages before exporting the text
strings.
