To install lexicons

At the Lexicon Installation step (Figure 14), you can install one or more text-based lexicon file sets in a new JACE. Lexicons provide support for non-English languages in the JACE. Lexicons are identified by java locale codes, such as “fr” (French) or “de” (German).

In some domestic (U.S.) installations, an English lexicon (“en”) is added and configured to globally “customize” items such as property descriptions in Workbench.

In order to select lexicons (file sets), they must be under a !lexicons subdirectory of your NiagaraAX Workbench home folder. Note that starting in AX-3.7, the Workbench installation no longer includes such lexicon file sets (along with your selection of them)—instead “standard” lexicons are now distributed as jar’ed software modules, which you select and install in the next step.

However, if you copied such lexicons from a previous NiagaraAX Workbench release, they will be available to install in this step. Typically you customize (edit) them using the Lexicon Editor in Workbench. Afterwards, you install them in JACEs, so that each JACE has the proper changes.

To install such lexicon file sets, do the following:

1. Click a language code to select (highlight) it.

   If multiple lexicons are needed, hold down the Ctrl key while you click.

2. When needed lexicons are selected, click the Next button for the next step, Select modules.
