5.1.3 Project Planning Using Device Description
As with PROFIBUS DP, a field device is integrated into the project planning tool by way of a
device description. The field device properties are described in the GSD file. The GSD file
contains the field device data (technical features and information for communication) that you
need to operate the device in a PROFINET network.
Import the GSD file into a project planning tool. Peripheral addresses are assigned to the
individual channels of the field devices. The peripheral input addresses incorporate the
received data. The user program evaluates and processes this data. The user program
generates the peripheral output values and sends them to the control interface.
Once project planning is complete, the I/O controller receives the planning and configuration
data. The I/O controller parameterizes and configures the field devices automatically.
