How to modify ''analogsensors.dxb'' file with Excel and add sensors datasheet information.

 


Description of the solution


For the test, we imported 13000 + sensors in the database without any problems. The trick is that you have to change the sensors in an XML format. The sensors cannot be simply copy-pasted, because their settings are saved in the XML and not in text format. 

1. Locate the analogsensors.dxb file in the DeweosftX folder:

2. Import it to Excel sheet:


3. In Excel or any other XML viewing software (Notepad++) you can then add, copy-paste, or change the sensor information.

Attached is an example file.
