Selection of the GSD file in the measuring device
Depending on which GSD file is used in the PROFIBUS master system, the corresponding GSD file
has to be configured in the device by means of the SELECTION GSD function.

Example
Before configuration takes place, a decision should be made as to which GSD file should be used to
configure the measuring device in the PROFIBUS master system. Below, the use of the
manufacturer-specific GSD file (complete device functionality) is shown using
PROFIBUS PA
as an
example:
Select the manufacturer-specific GSD file in the measuring device by means of the SELECTION

1.
Before configuring the network, load the corresponding GSD file into the configuration
system/master system.
!
Note!
When installing the GSD file, always first use the GSD file with the extended format
(EH3x1527.gsd). However, if the installation or the configuration of the device fails with this
format, then use the standard GSD (EH3_1527.gsd).
Example for the configuration software Siemens STEP 7 of the Siemens PLC family S7-300/
400:
Use the GSD file with the extended format (EH3x1527.gsd). Copy the file to the subdirectory
“...siemensstep7s7datagsd”. The GSD files also include bitmap files. These bitmap files are
used to display the measuring points in image form. The bitmap files must be saved to the
directory “...siemensstep7s7datansbmp”.
If you are using configuration software other than that referred to above, ask your PROFIBUS
master system manufacturer which directory you should use.
2.
The measuring device is a modular PROFIBUS slave, i.e. the desired module configuration
(input and output data) must be performed in the next step. This can be done directly by means
of the configuration software. A detailed description of the modules supported by the
measuring device as follows:
