Generating a Project File

You can import the assets information using a project file. Project files are collected from programming and maintenance software, uploaded to the ICS application, and accessible from your account. The ICS 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 which contain 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 go ahead with the generating a project file.
