Electronic Data Sheets (EDS)
Use the following form to access to Rockwell Automation EDS files. EDS files are simple text files used by network configuration tools such as DeviceNetManager™ and RSNetWorx™ to help you identify products and easily commission them on a network. EDS files describe a product's device type, product revision and configurable parameters on a DeviceNet or ControlNet network. As Rockwell Automation products are enhanced, new EDS files are created and maintained here.
To locate a specific EDS file, select the Device Type, Network, Brand, Catalog Number, and/or Major and Minor product revision. You can enter a little information or a lot to help you narrow your search. If you don't have all the product information, you can try a Keyword Search to locate EDS files containing only those keywords. See the "Search Tips" below for additional assistance locating a particular EDS file.
Once you've defined your search criteria, select the Search button. You see files that met your search criteria.
Searching Tips
- Be general with your search criteria. It's sometimes faster to search on major categories rather than on specific keywords.
- Check all spelling and numbers entered into search fields. A misspelled word or incorrect number may result in a "0 entries found" message.
- Be patient after selecting Search. Some complex searches may take a moment or two to complete.
- The EDS archives maintain a history of revisions as well as the most up-to-date versions of Rockwell Automation DeviceNet and ControlNet EDS files. If you have difficulty locating the correct EDS file using a general search, contact Rockwell Automation Technical Support at (440) 646-3434.
