System integration and configuration
6 System integration and configuration
The system integration and the configuration are an example of the con-
nection of the IO-Link Master with the SIEMENS “TIA Portal V13” project
planning software.
When using other controllers and project planning software, refer to the
relevant documentation.
GSDML file (Generic Station
Description Markup Language)
The device data required for project planning are saved in GSDML files. The
GSDML file makes the possible data module available with input or output
of different data widths.
You can download the GSDML files via the Internet page “www.sick.com”.
Top module and data modules
PROFINET devices are designed as a modular system. The system is com-
posed of a top module and several data modules.
To configure the IO-Link Master the relevant data modules are assigned to
a slot. The project planning software represents the data modules broken
down according to the slots.
Integrating the IO-Link Master
You can search for devices using the hardware catalog and move to the
PROFINET string using Drag & Drop.
