Automatically upload and register a device description file

The EDS / Device Description Auto Upload function enables the
FactoryTalk Linx
 Network Browser
 to automatically upload and register device description files for a selected node and its child nodes. For an online device whose device description file is not registered, the system detects whether there is a device description file within the device's firmware. If there is a device description file found, the system automatically uploads it from the device and registers it on the current computer. With the EDS / Device Description Auto Upload function, you can register several device description files at a time.

    , double-click (or click the ">" sign beside) a node to expand and view its child devices.
The system automatically browses the selected node and its child devices. If an unregistered online device is found, and it has a device description file within its firmware, the system automatically uploads and registers the device description file on your computer. A progress circle shows beside the unregistered device indicating the EDS / Device Description auto upload status.
