Electronic Device Description (EDD)
The EDDs are linked to the type, version of configuration software, and protocol being used.
Select the LR250 AMS EDD for the version of AMS installed. EDDs can be downloaded from our
website, see Product page (http://www.siemens.com/LR250
).
The HART EDD for LR250 is labeled as supporting AMS Device Manager version 9.5. This EDD
is also operational with AMS version 9.0 and 10.1. There is also an application guide that details
how to use the Hart Communication Foundation EDDs in AMS version 11.5 and above. There is
no EDD for the LR250 for AMS version 10.5 to 11.1.
Please check the product page for updated EDDs and application guide.
