files for correct formatting. Much of the possible content of EDS files is optional, and ODVA tests

stress correct formatting and not content.

Anybus EDS Generator

The Anybus EDS Generator tool automatically generates an EDS file by scanning a device using

the Anybus CompactCom 40 EtherNet/IP. This tool is easy to use and will provide a correctly

configured EDS file that matches your product. It is still required to validate the EDS file via EZ-

EDS.

The tool is available from the HMS Industrial Networks web site.

Sample Test Reports

The subscription to the conformance test software includes the EtherNet/IP Sample Test Report

document. This document outlines the manual procedure that testers will perform in addition to

running the automated test software.

Manual Test Procedure

Some features of EtherNet/IP cannot be properly verified by automated test software or the

development of a fully automated test may be impractical. For these features, a manual test

procedure, as well as passing criteria, is listed in the Sample Test Report. This is the exact

procedure and criteria used by the Test Service Providers. The majority of functionality that

needs to be tested manually is provided by the systems of the Anybus CompactCom, and has no

interaction with the host application. Therefore, developers using the Anybus CompactCom may

omit this lengthy procedure, but they must check the following:

•

HMS recommends everyone to complete the Physical layer and EDS test sections of the

sample test report. This ensures that produce labeling of LED's is correct and that the EDS

file is verified prior to submitting the product to the TSP for conformance test

•

If DLR is enabled in the product, it is required to be able to configure the speed and the

duplex of all Ethernet ports in some way. The host application may elect to disable the

standard means of configuring the speed and duplex in the Anybus CompactCom by:

–

Disabling set access to the Ethernet Link object by setting instance attribute #9 (Enable

Communication Settings from NET) in the Host EtherNet/IP object to False.

–

Disabling the web server. On the standard web pages of the Anybus CompactCom it is

possible to configure speed and duplex of the ethernet ports. For applications using

transparent ethernet functionality the web server is always disabled.

If none of the these ways of configuring the speed and duplex is possible, the host

application must provide some other way to configure them. For example the application

can have a keypad interface which can be used for configuration.

•

If the host application includes hardware switches (for example DIP switches or rotary

switches) for configuring the IP address, HMS recommends to perform the TCP/IP Interface

manual test cases (Section 4) in the sample test report.
