Electronic Data Sheet (EDS)
ArmorStart LT EtherNet/IP has an embedded electronic data sheet. An EDS
consists of specially formatted text files, as defined by the CIP™. EDS files contain
details about the readable and configurable parameters of the EtherNet/IP
device. They also provide information about the I/O connections that the device
supports and the content of the associated data structures. EDS are used by
EtherNet/IP device configuration tools, such as RSNetWorx™ for EtherNet/IP,
and data servers such as RSLinx® Classic.
EDS files for all ArmorStart LT EtherNet/IP devices can be uploaded directly
from the device via the web server interface. Rockwell Automation product EDS
files are also available on the internet at: http://www.ab.com/networks/eds
