3.24.1 Adding a custom device
Use the Custom Devices library
There is a library of custom devices stored as .xml files. To use a library device, select the appropriate cus-
tom device group in the system tree then select ‘Custom Devices > Load From Library..’ from the
top menu and choose the appropriate file.
You can make changes to the custom device and export the changes back as a new library item. Simply se-
lect the .xml file for the device you wish to add, or one that has a similar mapping, make the changes and
export with a new filename.
Use the Device’s Modbus Map document
Use the insert button to add a new device, the screen for that device will be shown and you can enter the de-
tails as required. For Modbus devices there is [usually] a document that describes the Modbus address map
available from the manufacturer. To add a new custom device you will normally need a copy of this so that
you can setup the map of the device registers.
Ask us to do it...
Weidmuller technical support can help you with this process. You will need to supply model number details
and we can supply you with an .xml file to add to your library.
