Appendix A. Advanced Topics
Appendix A.1. Enable the FieldServer to read data from a 90-xx PLC.
Appendix A.1.1. Use Versapro to configure/look at the EGD
configuration.
Produced data must be produced for a specific consumer. Thus you must create a new
exchange in the PLC that will produce data for the FieldServer. (Specific consumer
means specific IP address).
Since the EGD data packet is not structured, the FieldServer cannot decode the data
ranges without the Map Descriptors. It is therefore important that the data ranges in the
produced exchange correspond to the Map Descriptors in the CSV file.
