6.2.5 Importing missing devices / device description files
A device description file contains the data of the fieldbus peripherals needed for the higher-level
control. This file is required to programme the higher-level control (e.g. via the »STEP7« project of a
Siemens SIMATIC S7 PLC).
With the »PLC Designer«, device descriptions for the following Lenze device series are installed as
well:
• i700 servo inverter
• Servo Drives 9400
• Inverter Drives 8400
• I/O system 1000 (EPM-Sxxx)
• Fieldbus communication cards for Lenze Controllers
(EtherCAT, CANopen, PROFIBUS, PROFINET)
In order to furthermore integrate missing devices or devices of other manufacturers, the
corresponding device description files of the manufacturer are required.
In the »PLC Designer« you can import device description files of the *.XML, *.devdesc.XML, *.EDS,
*.DCF, and *.GSx type via the menu command Tools  Device Repository....
