Making a Fieldbus Device Template from a Vendor's DD

Use the following steps to add a template to the Control Builder
Library using the Fieldbus Library Manager utility included with
ProcessLogix R400.0 Engineering Tools and vendor supplied Device
Description (DD) files, version 4.01 or later.

TIP

You must have the DD files for the fieldbus device
either on a floppy diskette or the Foundation
Fieldbus Compact Disc supplied by the
manufacturer. This means you can make a device
template while the system is offline. You can skip
this procedure, if a template for the given device
type already exists in the Control Builder Library
database.

Rockwell Automation has tested and included some
devices as part of the base product for you
convenience. See Appendix E for general
information about using the Fieldbus Library
Manager utility and lists of available templates.

ATTENTION

!

Exit the Control Builder application before launching
the Fieldbus Library Manager utility.
