Appendix A. Vendor Information
Appendix A.1. Enable the FieldServer to read data from a 90-xx PLC.
Appendix A.1.1. Use Versapr o to configur e/loo k a t th e EGD configur ation.
Produced data must be produced for a specific consumer (Specific IP address). Thus a new exchange must be
created in the PLC that will produce data for the FieldServer.
Since the EGD data packet is not structured, the FieldServer cannot decode the data ranges without the Map
Descriptors. It is therefore important that the data ranges in the produced exchange correspond to the Map
Descriptors in the CSV file.
