Set the Language
You can set the language that the ReadyNAS system uses for file listings and automatically generated email messages. Choose the language used by most of the users who access your ReadyNAS system.
This setting does not control the language of the labels in FrontView or RAIDar. To change the language for them, use System Preferences in Mac OS X or the Control Panel in
Windows.
To set the language:
1.
From the FrontView main menu, select System > Language.
2.
From the Language Setting drop-down list, select a language
3.
If you select a Unicode language from the Language Setting drop-down list, select the
Allow Unicode for user, group and share names check box to use Unicode characters in the names of users, groups, and shares.
To disable this option later, you must perform a factory reset, which erases all the data on your ReadyNAS system.
4.
If you enabled the FTP protocol and your FTP client uses a different character encoding than your ReadyNAS system, select the Enable character encoding conversion for FTP
clients check box to convert the characters.
