Projecting

GSD file
Under normal circumstances, the MSI-FB-PROFIBUS module is operated on a DP master that reads the
device characteristics from the GSD file.
You will find the GSDML file and the equipment symbol for integration in a PLC of the product website of
the MSI-FB-PROFIBUS on the Internet (http://www.leuze.com).
Operating data transmitted by the MSI-FB-PROFIBUS module
The GSD file of the MSI-FB-PROFIBUS module provides input and output data blocks (virtual I/O device
modules), which contain the operating data. These 5 blocks must be projected in a natural sequence (1, 2,
3, 4, 5) in a DP configurator. No other sequence is possible.

Ä Depending on the PLC used, further modules may be shown (e.g. "Universal module").
These modules are not required and should be ignored.
Ä Data blocks 1–4 each contain 12 bytes, while data block 5 contains 2 bytes.
The content of the data blocks can be freely selected, but has been preconfigured as follows in the MSI.de-
signer:
