152 EtherNet/IP – Start-up
EDS files
Electronic Data Sheet (EDS) files specify the properties of the
device for the EtherNet/IP client. The client identifies the device by
means of the product code, device type and major revision
attributes.
To enable the use of different ABB drive types on the same
EtherNet/IP network, a unique product code has been given to
each drive type and application combination.
EDS files are available from the Document library
(www.abb.com/drives)
.
Note: Only one EDS file with the same EtherNet/IP product code
can be installed in the PLC at a time.
