The Locale tab allows you to specify the locale you want to use with ArcPad. Only the locales that are supported by the device’s operating system are displayed. Checking the Show All Locales check box displays all the locales supported by the operating system. ArcPad only supports locales that are supported by the device’s operating system.

Locales with a globe icon indicate that the ArcPad user interface or language pack is available on your device in that locale’s language.
