6.9.6 Export Server Objects to an EDE File
When engineering offline it can be beneficial to hand out the server object configuration of
the device to other parties electronically. For doing so you may export the server object
configuration to a set of EDE files. The set of EDE files consist of the main EDE file, e.g.
myDevice.csv
. This file refers to state texts that are exported to a second file named
myDevice-states.csv
. For which components are exported in an EDE file, please refer to
Section 13.3.3.
To Export an EDE File

Right-click and select
Export EDE …
in the context menu. This opens the EDE export
dialog to enter the EDE header information as shown in Figure 135.
