Posted 15 Nov 2015 For years I have successfully used modular eds files for devices with assembly sizes that can change. Recently I upgraded to Studio 5000 version 24, and I have run into a snag. When I try to change the size of the assembly (as shown below) I cannot leave the data entry field (circled in red) without hitting <ESC>, and the size change is lost. A colleague of mine does not have this problem in version 27 of Studio 5000. Is this a known issue with version 24? In this particular case, I am trying to use the attached eds file.

Posted 16 Nov 2015 Hi, I have also ran across this problem a few times while interfacing with gateway devices, but never had the time to properly solve the issue. My only workaround was to change the values in the EDS file in a file editor and then re-import the EDS, then recreate the device. Not fun, but it gets the plant running.

Posted 16 Nov 2015 I've never personally seen an "EDS-defined AOP" from a third party that worked correctly, and I put quite a bit of work into several of them in v20. I eventually gave up and went back to using a Generic Module object. I've been told by one of those vendors (SMC Pneumatics) that they have recently released a well-tested EDS that works with the Studio 5000 EDS-defined AOP function, but I have not tested it. I'll be using it on my next project and will put some time into it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 18 Nov 2015 Thank you for the information. I am going to upgrade to version 27 and see if that resolves the issues. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
