When you commission a new DeviceNet slave the first time,
you must inform your configuration program of certain fea-
tures of the slave. The features of the various slaves are
usually administered by the configuration program in a list or
library e. g. "EDS library" (EDS for electronic data sheets).
The following possibilities are available for extending an
"EDS library":
– Installing an EDS-file
– Entering the slave features by hand.
Installing an EDS-file
Current EDS-files and icons can be found under the following
address in Internet:
– www.festo.com: Go to the Business Area "Pneumatics"
and then to "Download Area".
For the CPV Direct you will require the following files:
File type
EDS-file
ICO file (Icon)
BMP file (Bitmap)
The EDS file contains all the necessary features of valve ter-
minal type CPV...GE-DN2-8. You can install this file with the
aid of your configuration program.
Depending on the configuration program used, you can as-
sign the bitmap file or icon file to the valve terminal. The valve
terminal will then be represented accordingly in the configur-
ation program.
