Abstract

Automated control system status information is displayed to a system operator by storing in electronic memory first fields of graphic indicia for generating at an operator display graphic representations of system conditions to be monitored and second fields of text indicia associated with the graphic indicia. The second fields of text indicia are stored in sets of separate sub-fields in each of two text languages, with each set in each sub-field being associated with a specific first field of graphic indicia. The system operator may alternately select between the sets of sub-fields of text indicia in such a way that the text fields displayed simultaneously with the graphic fields at the operator status display are all in one or the other of the two text languages.
