Electronic Data Sheet (EDS) File Support For NI-DNET

Primary Software: Driver Software>>NI-DNET
Primary Software Version: 1.5
Primary Software Fixed Version: N/A
Secondary Software: N/A

Problem:
I am attempting to configure my slave DeviceNet (DNET) hardware using Electronic Data Sheet (EDS) files. I can find the devices using a SimpleWho from MAX, however now I would like to configure the rest of the network using an EDS file, but there is no utility to do this from MAX. Is there any simple method to configure the DNET device(s)?

Solution:
NI-DNET 1.5.0 introduces two new features, NI-DNET Configurator and NI-DNET Analyzer. NI-DNET Configurator is a powerful DeviceNet configuration tool with Electronic Data Sheet (EDS) support. It replaces the previous SimpleWho utility. You can configure your device using an EDS file in the NI-DNET Configurator. To get these utilities, simply install NI-DNET 1.5.0 or later.
