What This Document Describes
This document describes how to install your CompactBlock
LDX™ I/O blocks.
EDS File Requirements
Current functionality of CompactBlock LDX I/O blocks requires
current modular EDS file for RSNetWorx for DeviceNet version
3.0 or later software.
These files are easy to install and are available online at:
www.ab.com/networks/eds/
EDS files for blocks with matching catalog numbers (for both
D-Shell and terminal block versions) are the same. Thus, on the
website and in RSNetWorx for DeviceNet, there is only one EDS
file for both versions of the blocks. For example, if you want the
EDS file for 1790D-T8BV8B, use the EDS file labled
1790D-8BV8B.
