The Network Configurator can support new devices if the proper EDS files are installed.
To install the EDS file, use the following procedure.
1
Select EDS File − Install.
The Install EDS File Dialog Box is displayed.

Select the EDS file to install and click the Open Button. Next, select the icon file (*.ico). The
EDS file is added to the Hardware List as a new device. If the hardware already exists, the new
Hardware List will overwrite the previous one. If the hardware versions are different, a hardware
device is added to the Hardware List for each version.
The EDS files are required by the Network Configurator to create a network configuration. To create an
EDS file, use the following procedure.
1
Select EDS File − Create.
2
Set the device information and I/O information. You can obtain the device information from the
device on the network if the network is online.
