6.9.2 Import from EDE File
If the device is engineered offline or some of the required BACnet devices are not yet
online in the network, the engineering process can be done by importing a device and object
list from a set of EDE files. These objects also appear in the import folder and can be later
used on the device.
There are a set of EDE files. Select the main EDE file, e.g.
device.csv
. The EDE import will
also search for the other components, which must be named
device-states.csv
. Which
components are expected, please refer to Section 13.3.3. Example EDE files can be found
in the ‗examples‘ directory of the LOYTEC Configurator software installation directory.
