NOTICE
Important note on the device description files included with the SIMATIC PDM
The device description files of non-Siemens field devices have not been developed by
Siemens and are included with the shipped products free of charge. The licensee is
entitled to use the device description files of these devices in the same manner as a trial
license in accordance with the general terms and conditions for the supply of software for
automation and drive technology. This right of use may be exercised by the licensee as
long as the right of use for the PDM software is in effect.
