Generating a Project File for VMDR OT
You can import the asset information using a project file. Project files are collected from programming and maintenance software, uploaded to the VMDR OT application, and accessible from your account. The VMDR OT application parses the uploaded file with valuable data and creates assets from the data gathered.
We are supporting different vendors and software tools such as Omron CX Programmer (.cxp), Rockwell RSLogix 500 (.RSS), Rockwell Studio 5000 (.L5X), Rockwell System Ferret (.Xml), Siemens DIGSI 4 (.zip), Siemens DIGSI 5 (.zip), Siemens DIGSI 5 (.dz5), and many more.
Refer to the following documents containing the procedure to generate a project file. The procedure varies depending on the programming software you use. Pick up the vendor software of your choice, and generate a project file.
