Every user can configure his own time zone. The use of this in the platform is necessary to display graphics located in time, as well as to notify alarms at the correct time. In addition, the platform allows the user to define whether he wants the time to be taken into account to be that of the installation or that of the user himself.

Numeric format

Language

Selection of the platform display language. Once a language is selected, the entire platform and messages will be displayed in that language. However, if controls appear whose variables are not displayed in the set language, it is because the creator of your library has not entered the translations before creating the control.
