1.6 Electronic Data Sheet (EDS) Disk
An Electronic Data Sheet (EDS) disk is included with this guidebook. It supplies
the parameters for setup of each type of I/O base. Each file’s format on the disk
complies with the ODVA specification for DeviceNet I/O module EDS parameters.
README.TXT File
The disk contains a README.TXT file in a standard text (ASCII) format, which can
be viewed and printed with any standard word processor or text editor program.
The README.TXT file describes the directory structure and filename conventions
used on the EDS disk.
EDS File Updates
Updated EDS files are available for downloading from the Customer Support areas
of the Schneider Automation Web Site and Bulletin Board service. EDS files are
all contained in a “zipped” (compressed) format in a single file, named EDS.ZIP.
After downloading the EDS.ZIP file, “unzip” its contents into a temporary directory
and use your application to install the EDS files.
