I have been using Google translator ,my German reading is not up to scratch .

I can fully understand the amount of hrs needed to translate a 700+ page Manuel for the main programs

Another smaller one for the displays.

Also all the in-program menus & Route & Train info.

If I really get stuck I ask my Wife she is fluent in English & Deutsche.

I have a note pad next to my PC where I write down stuff in English flip type so I can quickly look for the items I need to look up
as I get to grips learning the signals & systems within Zusi.

Yes it make progress slow on the driving , however with this Train Simulator you need to read & understand how things work.

If you see German in the user interface, go to the Start menu (bottom left with Windows symbol), and start Dateiverwaltung there.

In menu Verwaltung select Generelle Zusi-Einstellungen.

In tab Sonstiges, find Sprache on the left and select English.

Restart Zusi for this to take effect.

Since I'm used to TS2016 position of various keys, therefore it is much harded for me to get used for the so different one in Zusi. This problem and the language difference, greatly contribute to the lesser degree of fun when playing with Zusi locos. Sorry.

You can change the keys in the sim-settings.

Konfiguration -> Eingabegeräte -> Tastatur. There you must activate "Individuell" so that you can change the key assignments.

Have you changed your menu settings to English ?
I made that mistake of thinking the in sim menus had not been written in English & as I am slowly translating bits of the manuel the best I can.
At that point I had not read the parts in the Manuel covering menu settings & language .

However an helpful member on these forums pointed me in the correct direction to get everything into English though I have quite a bit of understanding of German as I live here these days its still a very complex language to get to grips with.

" If you see German in the user interface, go to the Start menu (bottom left with Windows symbol), and start Dateiverwaltung there.

In menu Verwaltung select Generelle Zusi-Einstellungen.

In tab Sonstiges, find Sprache on the left and select English.

Restart Zusi for this to take effect." thanks Andis for that guide.



Once you have done that the next time you run Zusi 3 all the menus & info screens will be in English .

So when you go into Configuration & settings /input devices / Keyboard .
You will see all the options.


(Zusi PC) .
(Zusi laptop like ).
(Zusi Laptop (for laptop.only Driver).
No keyboard
Custom (Select table cell & press key


The Key layout still use's German words like (ZehaneTastaur) basic meaning number pad key. So anything with those words after the numbers or symbol will be found on the number pad side.

(LEER ) is the Space bar .

(Bild-Nach-Oben ) is Page up Key.

(Bild-Nach_Unten) in Page Down key.

(Einfg) Insert Key .

(POS1) Home Key.

(Eingab) Enter key.

The Nach-Oben , Nach- Link , Nach Rechts , Nach-Unten is the arrow keys on your keyboard .

OK a tricky one for none German key layouts Spring loaded Brakes , Release : ü & Brake: ä these two letter are letters not found on a English Keyboard .

As I use an German layout keyboard I can not say if the same placed keys on an English layout keyboard work or not. these you may have to change.

Everything else is pretty much the same letter & function wise.

I will try to help you a little more if you need help with other parts though I need to get to grips with the sim myself.

Its little more complex than TS 2016 & the workload is much higher as you have to get to grips with the systems & signals.

The names of the keys are not set by Zusi but are read from the driver/windows. So if you have an english computer layout you should find english names.
