For example, Chinese fonts contain several thousand characters. Other multibyte 
languages include Japanese and Korean. 

There are two separate applications with multibyte characters – static text on buttons 
and indirect text on buttons. No Isys touchpanel or interface firmware changes are 
required in either case. 

Indirect text on a button is entered in VT Pro-e and the actual string to be displayed 
is entered in SIMPL Windows. As of this publication date only completely single 
byte or completely multibyte strings may be entered or they will not be compiled 
correctly in SIMPL Windows. In other words, you cannot enter Chinese characters 
interspersed with numbers. You can enter Chinese characters or numbers in separate 
strings or you can pad each number with “\x00” to make it multibyte and then 
combine it with Chinese characters in the same string. 

Of course you can always use the workaround of showing a graphic that displays the 
string but it is not dynamic. To compile and use multibyte characters it is essential 
that the operating system understand the language. Windows XP is available in many 
international languages and add-on software is available for other versions of 
Windows. 

An example program for the TPS-GA-TPI is available from the Crestron website
