The above screenshot shows the start screen of FF-CONF if you have never downloaded
device descriptions into the device library.
5.4 Managing the Device type library
HSE and H1 device types.
HSE device descriptions are preconfigured and cannot be changed. H1 device descriptions
can be added and removed. Each H1 device needs its special entry within the device type
library which must be notified before the Network Configuration can work successfully. A
device description has to be imported to the PC. You can add and delete single devices to
and from the device type library.
Before adding a device to the network configuration it has to be imported via the green
button. In the screen below you see the File selection dialog for importing a device
description.
While the .cff file is imported into the device type library possible error messages are shown
in the trace log. If there are any error messages, please contact the manufacturer of the
device for an update.
By selecting the cff-file, the information from associated .ffo and .sym files are imported as
well.
