5 - Quick reference
5.1 Configuring the encoder via Siemens STEP7
5.1.1 Importing GSD file
Profibus encoders are supplied with their own GSD file AMT58-xxx-
13x12-PB (see the enclosed documentation, if supplied, or click
Datalogic website).
WARNING
Install the AMT58_Vx.GSx in the AMT58 series multiturn encoders
GSD installation file is further available in both Italian (.GSI) and
English (.GSE) versions (texts and comments are in the supported
language).
WARNING
For AMT58 multiturn encoders the default value preset by Datalogic
in the Counts per revolution item of the AMT58-xxx-13x12-PB GSD
file is 4096 (12 bits); for this reason, if you have a 25-bit multiturn
encoder and you want to use the overall resolution, you must set the
Counts per revolution item to 8192 (13 bits). See EXAMPLE 2 on
page 20.
