EDS is not registered why?

4 posts in this topic

Good morning all,

I have a weird issue with 2 eds files. I am trying to register two modules, 5069-IB8S an 5069-OBV8S (Safety Input and Output cards). The EDS registration tool looks like everything are ok. When I search the cards to install them in my hardware tree I just cant find them. I tried to do the process as an administrator....nothing, I tried to restart RSLogic…. nothing. I tried to restart the whole PC....nothing. I installed other modules but not Allen Bradley products ( at this point, I really don't know what's wrong so I mention that :P ). Something else that I noticed, but I think it's nothing, is that the other products that I registered can be found just with the art.No. These two, when I try to register them they are coming with an A-B before the art.No. An other point is that in RSLogix 5000/Module Profile directory, I cannot find the 2 modules. The last point is that  when I go the remove list I can find them, so it seems that the cards are there, but.....not.

I am using Studio 5000 v32

 

Thank you for all the support

I may be reading your post all wrong, but have you added the Card EDS to RSLINX and seen them there?  If not you'll never see them in Studio.

Hello Bob,

well I added the card in EDS tool and I tried to register the card. EDS tool looks that the card is registered (finish the process just fine). Then I wanted to confirm that, so I went to the remove section of EDS tool and I found the card (but instead of a name with this format xxxx-YYYY it is A-B xxxx-YYYY).So I guess if I see the card in remove section of EDS the card was registered, but when I search to add the card in my hardware tree I cant find it.

 

Maybe my English are not correct so.... feel free to joke about that :P

Well my problem solved.  The eds tool did the job correct, but the profile had problems. So I download the profile add on from Rockwell and I fixed it. 

 

So just for future issues like mine, guys check also the add on profile....both things must be ok
