3. Environment

4. Resolution

Generic EDS DTM was developed by third party company and it was handed over to =S=, Generic EDS DTM allows addition of only one connection for vendor EDS. In case, more connections need to be supported then the impact analysis on the existing generic DTMs should be performed.
There is a workaround which will allow to configure multiple connections: Add the following keyword under the [Device] section of EDS file, it will enable the multiple connections addition.
243_AdvanceGeneric = 1;

And then remove the previous EDS file in Unity Pro, add the new one. Now it’s available to add more connection.
