It is not necessary to add the GW EIP/ASCII... to RSLinx for normal communication.
However, it is easy to add the GW EIP/ASCII... and its associated electronic data sheet
(EDS) files to RSLinx. The EDS files can be downloaded from phoenixcontact.com .
EDS files and the associated icons are included in the self-installing file (MSI). They are
copied to the Phoenix Contact/ EtherNetIP directory when the MSI file is executed.
8.1 Add the GW EIP/ASCII... to RSLinx
1. Open RSLinx.
2. From the “Communications” menu, click the “Configure Drivers” option.
3. From the “Available Drivers” menu, click the “Remote Devices via Linx Gateway”
option.
4. Click the “Add New” button.
5. Use the default driver name or type your own driver name in the “Name” field. Click the
“OK” button to continue.
6. Type the IP address for the device in either the “Server’s IP Address” or “Hostname”
field, and then click the “OK” button.
7. Click the “RSWho” button to verify that RSLinx can communicate with the
GW EIP/ASCII....
8.2 Add the EDS file to RSLinx
1. Open the EDS Hardware Installation Tool (Select Start > All Programs > Rockwell
Software > RSLinx Tools).
2. Click the “Add” button.
3. Click the “Register” button to open a browse window. Navigate to the Phoenix
Contact/EtherNetIP directory, highlight the desired file, and then click the “Next” button
to continue.
4. Verify that there is a green check mark beside each EDS file name and click the “Next”
button to continue.

c) Browse to the Phoenix Contact/EtherNetIP directory, and then select the icon
associated with the GW EIP/ASCII....
6. Click the “Next” button to continue.
