Adding DeviceNet Signals The EDS file may contain information about the data length, but it does not contain any information about the data itself. Tyler Anderson. We eventually wrote a vba macro that would setup the powermonitor from excel through rslinx 2 If you setup the powermonitor to give you data back as Floating Point, Keep in mind that you'll have to convert it from "Big-Endian" to "Little-Endian" and then reassemble the floating point.

Good Luck! In reply to Tyler Anderson : Thanks! Only after this information has been collected, try to give the device an address in DeltaV and enable it, and re-download the EDS just to be certain you have one that matches what diagnostics reported. I would recommend always running with the correct EDS. As we originally thought, and you are correct Frank, there was a configuration mismatch between the field device and DeltaV.

DeltaV is configured for 11 input all 16 unsigned integer while the field device is set to user define config of 13 output unsigned integer. We took the 2 extra register out then reset the power of the comm module of the field device. DeltaV started reading data after that. I understand that it will not communicate with DeltaV unless the configuration match but it should not cause a failure in the whole Network.

If you need two different protocols on a PK, the VIM2 can be used for one and the PK native protocol for the other, but the control devices like Drives and motors would be better connected to the PK ports and support equipment like analyzers connected via the VIM2, if two protocols are needed.

In reply to Andre Dicaire : As always, thank you for your very knowledgeable insights Andre! This is in line with what we were thinking as well, but it is comforting to have this confirmed. Many thanks! Matt Forbis. In reply to Andre Dicaire : I have also found a similiar experience to Andre. Another thing that is sometimes helpful if you cannot read an EDS file in notepad directly, VIMNet Explorer also has a few provisions in it for helping you understand and get the correct data for DeltaV.
