Localization

Localization in TwinCAT HMI enables the management of different time zones and time formats. The server is based on the UTC time. Some controls (for example, the Event Grid and the Trend Line Chart) require a timestamp. To display the times on the client according to their region (with time offset), the time zone and time format can be specified in the project properties or per user.

Setting in the project properties

The setting of the time zone and time format can be set for the project in the project properties.

Setting in the user properties

The time zone and time format settings can be set per user. This setting overrides the setting in the project properties when user authentication is active.
