    Hello
    I've been given an EDS file to talk to a Kawasaki robot controller.
    It installs ok, but only Input data seems visible.
    If I install it in another Ethernet/IP configurator (Omron) then Input and Output data appears.
    Could anyone have a look? (I've changed extension from eds to txt to upload it here)
    Thanks

    If you open up the file, you'll see that the path for Exclusive owner is incorrect with some extra bytes:
    "20 04 25 00 00 04 2C 96 2C 64"; $ Path

    This should be more like:
    "20 04 24 04 2C 96 2C 64"; $ Path

    If you use EZ-EDS (https://www.odva.org/software/EZ-EDS-Download), open up the file and go down the Connection Manager -> Connection1 .You won't be able to Create/Decode path. Anyway, I've attached the updated EDS. Let me know how it works.

    That's really kind. I'm visiting Kawasaki next week to try and make this work. I'll certainly let you know.
