Hi All,
Require help for the following,
Communication Between Kistler 5867C Controller With LabView via Ethernet IP using EDS File.
I have checked that there is an option to in NI Max Tool/EDS manager via which we can add/install the EDS File of any third party device.
But as i had checked that there is no option showing of EDS Manger in NI MAX.
Below is the google link which had mentioned the above steps if the EDS Manager is not available in NI MAX.
I had tried all the option but still the problem remains.
Will appreciate quick response from all of you.
Thanks,
Regards,
Harshal

Have you purchased and installed the NI module for Ethernet/IP?

However, even with that I don't know if there is actually a "NI Max Tool/EDS manager" you can use. The search you used looks like it may be an AI hallucination rather than a real thing.
An EDS is just a configuration file in the same format as an INI file. See this thread if you haven't:
