<div class="markdown_content"><p>Thanks. The fact is that I have my task to write my own interface for configuring my device. Whether it is implemented by means of .devdesc.xml ? In order for the configuration registers to be in the form of a drop-down list with values. Currently, a number is written to the configuration registers to select the device mode.</p></div>

<div class="markdown_content"><p>It says how to enable in the link, right?<br/> An example with a generic editor is:<br/> <a href="https://forge.codesys.com/drv/io-drivers/code/HEAD/tree/trunk/">https://forge.codesys.com/drv/io-drivers/code/HEAD/tree/trunk/</a><br/> - IoDrvFB.devdesc.xml<br/> - IoDrvFB.library<br/> It does not have any enums, you can look at the enum in the following example, with parameter EthernetProtocol which is only available in the generic editor view</p> <p>An example with an Automation Platform editor is:<br/> Tools &gt; Device Repository &gt; Fieldbuses &gt; Ethernet Adapter &gt; Ethernet &gt; Export</p></div>

<div class="markdown_content"><p>Thank you, how do I enable Show generic device configuration views? Do you have an example of devdesc.xml file that contains drop-down lists and other elements of the user interface.</p></div>

<div class="markdown_content"><p>The parameters listed in your device description can be seen by turning on the <a class="" href="https://help.codesys.com/webapp/_cds_dlg_options_device_editor;product=codesys;version=3.5.16.0" rel="nofollow">Show generic device configuration views</a></p> <p>To create a custom editor like you see for example with Ethernet IP Scanner, you will need to purchase <a class="" href="https://www.codesys.com/products/codesys-engineering/automation-platform.html" rel="nofollow">Automation Platform</a>, or have CODESYS or their <a class="" href="https://www.codesys.com/company/system-partners.html" rel="nofollow">System Partners</a> program such an editor for you.</p></div>
