Local Language Support

DMT v3.2 is designed for easy localization, meaning that the “on screen” language will follow the
default language settings of your Computer:

•

To change your Windows PC’s screen language, please go to:

Control Panel/Region and Languages/Formats/Format

•

To change your MAC computer’s screen language, please go to:

System Preferences/Language & Text/Language

Changes take place when you restart the DMT. If the DMT does not have a particular translation, it will
default to English.

If you want to help to localize DMT for additional language support, please drop us an email at

[email protected]
