Use the configuration file and these parameters to customize the settings for up to four
languages:
LANGxFILE - The name of a selected language file, for example, "French". In addition to
providing the language name as this value, replace the "x" in this parameter with a "1", "2",
"3", or "4" to indicate which of four languages you are specifying. For example, to indicate
German and French are the available languages, the setting is:
LANG1FILE=mlf_german.txt and LANG2FILE=mlf_french.txt.
LANG0STAT - Allows the user to select the built-in English language when other
languages are downloaded. If LANG0STAT is "0" and at least one language is
downloaded, the user cannot select the built-in English language. If LANG0STAT is "1" the
user can select the built-in English language text strings.
LANGSYS = The file name of the system default language file, if any.
For more information, see 16
00 Series IP Telephone Customizable System Parameters. To
view multiple language strings, see the MLS local procedure in the Avaya 1600 Series IP
Deskphones Installation and Maintenance Guide.
Note:
Note: Specifying a language other than English in the configuration file has no impact
on Avaya Aura Communication Manager settings, values, or text strings.
