4.6 Configuration / Parametering with the Object Model

4.6.1 EDS Files

In DeviceNet, the capacity characteristics of the devices are documented by
the manufacturers in the form of an EDS file (Electronic Data Sheet) and
made available to the user.
Architecture, contents and coding of the EDS files are standardized which
permits design and configuration with devices of different manufacturers.
The EDS file is read by the configuration software and corresponding settings
transmitted. For required entries and handling steps for this purpose, please re-
fer to the software user manuals.
Further information
ODVA informs about the EDS files of all listed manufacturers.
