Use of signatures is enabled by default for new RX7i or RX3i projects and is disabled for other targets and for
existing projects.
Using Signatures with Run Mode Stores of EGD
If your application will use run mode stores of EGD, the use of signatures is highly recommended. Do not use
EGD commands specifying a signature value of 0 because a value of 0 effectively disables the signature
checking function.
For information about the use of signatures with run mode stores of EGD, refer to “Run Mode Store of EGD” in
Configuring EGD Signatures
To select the signature option for a device, right-click the Ethernet Global Data node and choose Properties. The
Use Signatures option is displayed in the properties Inspector window. This parameter may be set to True to
enable signature support or to False to disable signature support in the device.
Note that both the producer and consumer must have signatures enabled, otherwise signatures are ignored
and only the exchange size is used to determine compatibility.
Configuring Ethernet Global Data Using the EGD Configuration Server
The EGD Configuration Server is supplied with the Machine Edition software, but it is not automatically installed
with Machine Edition. To use the EGD Configuration Server and its associated tools, the server must be installed
on the computer as described below.
Installing the EGD Configuration Server
To install the EGD Configuration Server, go to the directory where the machine Edition software is installed and
open the folder named “EGD Installs”. Select the file “EgdCfgServerSetup.msi”. Double-click on the file to install
the EGD Configuration Server.
Configuring the EGD Configuration Server
To configure the Ethernet Global Data server in Machine Edition, click on the Options tab in the Navigator
window. In the Machine Edition folder, select the EGD item to display the configuration options for the
configuration server. For example:

Local Server Cache Path
:
This parameter sets the path to be used for caching data from the configuration
server. This cache is used if the server becomes inaccessible (for example, if the server is on another machine
and that machine is inaccessible due to loss of network communications). You can also choose to work offline
from the server and use this cache. This mode of operation is explained below.
Base Path
:
Typically this field should not be changed from the default of /EGD. This is the path portion of the
URL used to get to the server.
Host Name
:
The host name for the computer on which the configuration server runs. This can be specified as
“localhost” if the server is on the local machine.
