Explanation:
In my opinion, Harald is right - should be language file. In many (if not all) of these laser systems, the user can choose the language in which the operator prompts are to be displayed (what I've seen commonly is English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese as the available language options). Thus "language file" makes sense to me.
