3.4 Device configuration
Overview
The device configuration file Configuration.xml is located in the corresponding
subdirectory of the device. It defines the enumerated and complex types used by
the device and identifies the available parameters, which can be subscribed for
cyclic transmission. The configuration file can be defined according to the XML
schema Configuration.xsd. The following document shows a simplified device
configuration.
Example
