Import the CSV Data Model File into the Customized Library

Importing a CSV Data Model file will add to the library all the object models (DPTs, with their corresponding DPEs) for the custom SNMP device defined in that file.

 

The import of a CSV Data Model file differs from a library import, which instead brings into the project the SNMP library with all the data (object models, text groups, symbols, icons, and so on) needed to use the SNMP device.

 

  1. In System Browser, select Project > System Settings > Libraries > [L4-Project, L3-Country or L2-Region] > Global > SNMP > Object Model.
  1. Select the Import tab.
  1. Click Browse.
  • The Open dialog box displays. It contains all the configuration files available in the chosen directory.
  1. Select the CSV file you want to use (for example, SNMP Data Model Ver. 2.0).
  1. Click OK.
  • The complete path of the selected file displays. The Source Items preview lists all the available items.
  1. Select the DPTs to import by transferring the desired items from the Source Items list to the Items to Import list and click .
  1. Click Import.
  • A confirmation message displays.
  1. Click Yes.
  • The import starts. The Import tab refreshes to display the Import in progress page where you can check the import state. When the import completes successfully, the Import dialog box displays its outcome.
  1. Click OK to close the dialog box.
  • The DPTs that you selected to import are added to System Browser under the SNMP Object Model folder.
