Multilingual User Interface

Note

Note

This feature is not available on SoundPoint IP 301 phones.

The system administrator or the user can select the language. Support for major western European languages is included and additional languages can be easily added. Support for Asian languages (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) is also included, but will display only on the SoundPoint IP 650 and SoundStation IP 4000’s higher resolution displays.

For basic character support and extended character support (available on SoundPoint IP 550, 560, 600, 601, and 650 and SoundStation IP platforms), refer to Multilingual <ml/> on page A-20. (Note that within a Unicode range, some characters may not be supported due to their infrequent usage.)

The multilingual feature relies on dictionary files resident on the boot server. The dictionary files are downloaded from the boot server whenever the language is changed or at boot time when a language other than the internal US English language has been configured. If the dictionary files are inaccessible, the language will revert to the internal language.

	Note		Currently, the multilingual feature is only available in the application. At this time,
			the bootROM application is available in English only.
			Configuration changes can performed centrally at the boot server or locally:
Central		Configuration file:		Specify the boot-up language and the selection of language choices
(boot server)		sip.cfg		to be made available to the user.
				• For more information, refer to Multilingual <ml/> on page A-20.
				For instructions on adding new languages, refer to To add new
				languages to those included with the distribution: on page A-21.
Local		Local Phone User		The user can select the preferred language under the Settings menu.
		Interface		Changes are saved to local flash and backed up to <Ethernet
				address>-phone.cfgon the boot server. Changes will permanently
				override global settings unless deleted through the Reset Local
				Config menu selection and the <Ethernet address>-phone.cfgis
				removed from the boot server.
