Restart SINUMERIK Operate
The files must still be converted into a binary format so that the alarm texts can be displayed
during the program runtime. This data is only converted during power up.
To do this, restart SINUMERIK Operate. In the same directory where the .ts files are located,
files with the same name are created with the ".qm" file extension.
The result of the conversion is written to the "alarmtext_conversion.log" or
"oem_text_conversion.log" file. Errors that occur during the conversion, such as syntax errors
in a parameter file, are also written to the file.
This file is located in the "/user/sinumerik/hmi/log" directory.
Note
The conversion is only made if the .ts file is newer than the associated .qm file.
13.2.2 Creating texts for indexed alarm parameters
If a string, the so-called "Index identifier", is specified in the alarm text in pointed brackets after
a space holder (e.g. "%1<OEM>"), the parameter itself is not inserted in the alarm text,
but a text from another alarm text file, a so-called index text file. In this case, the alarm
parameter value serves as index in order to select the text in the index file. The index text can,
in turn, include parameters, also index parameters.
Note
Explanation for the "Index identifier" string
● "<" ≙ opening pointed bracket "<"
● ">" ≙ closing pointed bracket ">"
Creating an index text file
1. You can copy a sample index text file "oem_indexparams_eng.ts" from the following
directory: /siemens/sinumerik/hmi/template/lng
2. Save or create the file in the /oem/sinumerik/hmi/lng or
/user/sinumerik/hmi/lng directory. Create a separate file for each country language that is
supported.
3. Assign a unique name to the file, e.g. "my_indextexts_eng.ts". You can freely select the file
names with the exception of the language code and the extension.
The file name always ends with the language code of the particular language and always
has the ".ts" extension. For instance, "my_indextexts_deu.ts" for German or
"my_indextexts_eng.ts" for English.
