EtherCAT
The manufacturer's ID, the device ID and any functions supported by a field device are de-
fined in a device description file. The device description file (Electronic Data Sheet, EDS) is
fieldbus-dependent. The content and format of a device description file are specified in the
fieldbus standard. The file is needed in order to include an unknown field device in the re-
spective fieldbus configuration tool and in order to configure the plant-specific require-
ments.
An EDS file in XML format is used for EtherCAT devices.
