Landis+Gyr map device document

File type category:
Various data file

Date updated: October 20, 2026

The prd file extension identifies a proprietary document used by Landis+Gyr MAP software. Landis+Gyr develops a portfolio of advanced metering and intelligent energy-management products, compatible software, and other solutions.

The file stores map or device information for use within the MAP application and is intended for the Landis+Gyr device-management workflow rather than as a general-purpose document.

Because the format is tied to Landis+Gyr software, its continued usability depends on having a compatible MAP application and device environment.

How to open prd file?

Open the prd file with the Landis+Gyr MAP software associated with the device or project that produced it. General-purpose text editors and office applications are not suitable for this format.

If the file does not open, use a compatible version of the MAP software or contact the organisation that supplied the file or the Landis+Gyr software.

How to convert prd file?

Keep the Landis+Gyr map device document in its original form for use with the corresponding MAP software.

If the application offers an export or save-as function, use that function to create a supported output file. Generic document converters are unlikely to preserve its device data.

RISCWatch processor resource definition

File type category:
Settings, options, themes or skins file

Date updated: October 20, 2026

Record marked as obsolete and not updated for a long time.

RISCWatch was a software development and debugging tool that enabled users to create programs for PowerPC processors and controllers. Its processor resource definitions helped the tool work with processor-specific resources of a target system.

A prd file contains a processor resource definition used by RISCWatch when working with a supported PowerPC processor or controller.

The format is obsolete and is no longer commonly used. A PRD file is therefore mainly useful with the historical RISCWatch environment that expects it.

How to open prd file?

Open the prd file with a compatible RISCWatch installation. RISCWatch uses the definition when working with a supported PowerPC target; it is not intended to be opened as a normal document.

Because RISCWatch is obsolete, a current general-purpose application may not recognise this file.

How to convert prd file?

There is no general-purpose conversion for a RISCWatch processor resource definition. The contents describe processor-specific resources and are meaningful to RISCWatch rather than to another document format.
