Configuring the DeviceNet Network
Accessing the EDS File
The EDS file is used for configuration of the DeviceNet master. This file tells the Master
software how much I/O data is supported for a particular DeviceNet device as well as Control
Techniques’ vendor code, module revision, etc. The EDS file for the Ei-DN also contains the
Class, Instance, and Attribute ID’s for all Ei drive parameters. These class, instance, and
attribute ID’s are used for explicit messaging and can be found in the back of this manual in
the Drive Parameters chapter.
The EDS file is installed with PowerTools FM and can be found in the PTOOLSFM folder.
An icon file is also located in this section for display on the master software configuration
screen. These two files may also be downloaded from our website at www.emersonct.com.
