custom icon file for the device.

Many EtherNet/IP platforms support the use of EDS files to simplify the addition
and configuration of devices. This chapter covers the installation and use of the
EDS file for systems that are programmed with Rockwell Automation Studio 5000
version 20 and above. Other systems will follow a similar pattern. Consult your
controller’s documentation if you need additional information.
Note: Use of an EDS file is completely optional. The SV160E2 can always be added
to a system as a generic module. If you are using RSLogix 5000 version 19 and
below, or RSLogix 500, adding the unit as a generic module is the only option
available.
