Configuring language selection (PC systems)

Validity of the description
This section relates to configuration with a PC system and does not apply to the
configuration with SIMATIC Panels.
Introduction
You can automatically switch the language of WinCC RT Advanced Runtime when the
language is changed in SINUMERIK Operate. However, it is not possible at this time to
automatically apply the language in SINUMERIK Operate when the language is changed in
the WinCC RT Advanced Runtime. Automatic language selection is currently only possible in
one direction.
To configure language selection, create an HMI tag with the address of the PLC data block
DB10.DBB96 (Page 140) in which the active language of SINUMERIK Operate is stored.
You then define a relation between the configured language order and the language in
SINUMERIK Operate using a VB script and have the script be automatically executed when
the value changes.
Requirement
