Options
The LonMaker Design Manager’s Options tab allows you to set a prioritized list of languages for
L
ON M ARK resource files. This list is then applied to all new networks you create.
When the LonMaker tool displays documentation for selected devices, functional blocks, and network
variables, it uses the definitions contained in L
ON M ARK resource files. You can display the L ON M ARK
resource file information in different languages by specifying a prioritized list of languages for
L
ON M ARK resource files in the LonMaker tool.
You can set the resource file language for a specific network while in the LonMaker tool by opening
the LonMaker menu, selecting Network Properties, and then clicking the Resource File Language
tab.
