HI Mike, thanks for the video. Even for me, a non speaking English this is a great video. You do not speak fast and this is good for the rest of the world. This information is crucial. If you do not know the difference, you are lost in the automation world. God Bless you.

Hi Mike, Thanks for the video, I have a question. If I install 1783-ETAP add on profile, I do not get any data type of ETAP in my Studio 5000. Please guide me in this regard

Hi Mike, Thanks for the video. I have a problem because I am using an old VM with windows XP. So it can not run the MPSetup.exe because it is a 64 bit program. Is there a way to get the new AOP on my windows XP VM?
Hello, If this is a third party device, yes they can be installed using the EDS Hardware Installation Tool. We hope this is helpful. If you have further questions or concerns, please reach out to your local Rockwell Automation distributor for personalized support.
Is an Add On Profile better than an EDS file? What are the benefits of the AOP over the EDS file? Does the EDS file just give you an array of a nominated data type in the controller tags, whereas an AOP gives you named items of different data types in the controller tags?
Hi Don, One is not better than the other, they both have their own features. Module profiles, also known as Add-On Profiles, are required for the programming software to communicate to the device and typically generate a graphical user interface (GUI) which is used to easily configure it. EDS files are required for communication based software to be able to identify the device. This includes RSLinx Classic and RSNetworx for DeviceNet/ControlNet/EtherNet/IP software. If you have further questions or concerns for your application, we recommend reaching out to your local distributor for personalized support.
hi mike, i have a question, i try to find the *.eds for the panelview plus 6 1250, but in the page of rockwell say you find the *.eds for the panelview, but when i download the file is *.exe and it's not *.eds, where can i the files? or how i find the file *.eds
Hi Luis, Some EDS files are automatically installed when the .exe is ran. Download and run the .exe file, then complete the configuration. If you have any issues please contact Rockwell Automation or your local Rockwell distributor for support.
Hello Erik, AOPs are only available when using RSLOGIX 5000 / STUDIO 5000, not with RSLogix 500. If a card is not available to select via your RSLOGIX 500, you will need to check the version you are using, if your software is an older version and the card is not available to select, then you will need to update your software via a Rockwell Automation TechConnect or purchase a new license of RSLOGIX 500 from your local Rockwell Automation distributor. Thank you!
