file can be created by the message file generator provided with Basic
Operation Package 1. For an explanation of the procedure for creating
the message file, see Appendix 4, "Message File Generator."

This text file stores the messages that can be displayed on the
[Parameter] screen and [Diagnosis] screen and the messages output upon
the occurrence of an NC alarm or PMC alarm. The messages can be
displayed in the desired language by replacing that part enclosed by a
pair of double quotation marks ("") with the desired language.

A desired language environment can be added to the Basic Operation
Package either manually or by using ADDLANG.EXE, an installer.

2. Create subfolders for storing the message files and INI files within
the folder of the Basic Operation Package.
3. Copy the message files and INI files into the subfolders created in
step 2, above.
4. Display the [Language Switcher Setting] screen. (For details of this
operation, see Section 11.4.1, "Installing message languages.")

files can neither be deleted nor renamed.
