When starting up a new DeviceNet station for the first time,
you must inform your configuration program about certain
properties of the station. The properties of the various sta-
tions are managed by the configuration program usually in
a list or library, e. g. "EDS library" (EDS for electronic data
sheets).
Installing an EDS file
Current EDS files and picture files (icons) can be found in the
Internet under the following address:
– www.festo.com/fieldbus/
File name: festo_dn.exe
You will require the following files for the CDVI-DN:
File type
EDS files
ICO file (icon)
BMP file (bitmap)
The EDS files contain all the necessary information about the
valve terminal of type CDVI-DN. You can install this file with
your configuration program.
You can assign the bitmap file or icon file to the valve ter-
minal, depending on the configuration program used. The
valve terminal is then displayed accordingly in the configur-
ation program.
Notes on how to install an EDS file and an ICO or BMP file
can be found in the manual or in the help function for your
configuration program.
