Translating Segment Attributes Using FTU

If you enter Y in the TRANSLATE GSD property on the FTU Welcome screen, the Segment Attribute and Caption Translation Utility menu screen is displayed. Each Segment Attribute is displayed in turn.

If you choose to translate both captions and Segment attributes, the Segment attribute translation menu is given first.

Make any changes to your Segment attribute initial values for the languages shown on the screen, and transmit.

Alternatively, you might enter an FTU command in the COLON COMMAND property.
