Installing local language packs for Si8000m, Si9000e, Speedstack, CGen, CITS880s

Polar's software products are available to PolarCare customers in a number of localised editions.

To obtain a language pack for your product contact polarcare@polarinstruments.com with your product details and PolarCare Agreement number.

Note: When selecting languages it is important to have the relevant language packs installed within your Windows system. This is especially important for East Asian languages, where it is also necessary to ensure that the Control Panel|Regional Settings are set appropriately.

Note: Each language pack zip file contains the language .dlls including a specific language folder name that is recognised by the application. These should not be changed, otherwise the application will ignore them.

Although the application defaults to English if no languages are available, it is recommended that, where available, the English language pack is installed to ensure that it is presented as an option when needed.
