2.4.1 Participant properties (EDS file)

2-16
When using the CPX terminal as a new network participant for
the first time, the configuration program is to be informed of
certain network properties.
These network properties are integrated into the participant
properties.
The participant properties are predominantly managed by the
configuration program in a list or library e. g. EDS library (EDS
for electronic data sheet).
The following options are available for expanding an EDS lib-
rary:
– Installing EDS files
– Entering participant properties manually
– Importing participant properties
When the CPX terminal has been registered as a potential
network participant, it can be added to a network.
