EDDL/DD File Download

DD and EDDL files can be downloaded from the respective bus organization

For control systems it is generally better to download the "device package" for the device from the system vendor's website as such packages include additional files over and above DD/EDDL file, such as device faceplate graphics and default value templates etc.

How do I install a DD file?
