10.1.2
Reading in generic station description (GSD)
When configuring the device for the first time via PROFIBUS, you need to first load the
generic station description file for the device into the hardware catalog of the project
planning tool (e.g., SIEMENS TIA Portal).
1.
Download GSD file from the website
.
2.
Follow the instructions in the online help or in the user manual of the project
planning tool in order to read in the generic station description file.
✓
The device is displayed in the hardware catalog in the project planning tool.
You can then use the project planning tool to integrate the device in the hardware
catalog into the PROFIBUS network as well as configure and parameterize the device for
your application.

Configuring and parameterizing nodes
Setting PROFIBUS address
Each PROFIBUS field device requires a unique system-specific address in the project
planning. This must match the address stored in the device.
1.
Configure a unique system-specific address using the project planning tool.
2.
If necessary, change the address set
6
for the device at the factory. Use the SOPAS
ET configuration software or do so directly on the device via the
BusAdr
menu.
Selecting GSD modules
To receive measured values from the device, at least one input module from the GSD
file must be added to the project from the hardware catalog of the project planning tool,
e.g., the
1-Dist/i2w
module for transferring the distance value. For details on the GSD
modules
.
If necessary, perform the parameterization in the input module, e.g., by selecting the
desired resolution of the
Distance
measured value in the case of the
1-Dist/i2w
module.
If required, add further GSD modules to the project plan and configure any optional
parameters in the modules for the application.
10.2
GSD modules
The device is a so-called modular PROFIBUS slave. The composition of the sent and
received data structure of a modular slave is variable and consists of several individual
modules.
The modules can be selected and defined by users taking into account the following
conditions:
•
Maximum number of modules: 16
•
Maximum total length of the process data: 32 bytes of input and output data
The modules allow flexible adaptation of the device for the various control tasks. The
individual modules with their respective properties are described in the GSD file.
