Install GSDML File

After installing a SIMATIC Manager
 the GSDML file (data, xml file) and
 the corresponding image file (icon, bmp file)
are not available. They must be imported.
Before the installation, you must copy the files to a folder outside
C:\...\Siemens\Step7\GSD\... – otherwise they will not be installed. During the
installation, the files are written to the above-mentioned folder.
1. Locate the GSDML file and bmp files
( this is only an example): \\Ch021090.ww020.siemens.net\TX-
IO_for_Simatic\04_Firmware\Test_Release\Firmware TXB1.PROFINET\...
This is not the full path name. You would usually want to download the
latest version. This version can be found under the specified path as shown in
the adjacent figure – e.g., V0.2.17.
2. Copy files to the following path in the local PC:
C:\Program Files\Siemens\Step7\S7tmp
This path must be used. The files are not permitted to be copied to the
actual target folder. This is done automatically by the installation program
during the installation.
1. Open the hardware configuration window.
2. Tools > Install GSD Files
Opens Install GSD Files
3. Select the required GSDML file
The possible files are listed in the text field.
4. Install button.
5. Close button.
The file is imported into the engineering tool. After this procedure the Profinet
BIM appears in the hardware catalog (...\Profinet IO\I/O\TX-I/O).
