OEM Push Button Panel Equipment Manual
Release 08/98
The special GSD files transfer information concerning the Push Button Panel
to the configuration software COM-PROFIBUS (SIMATIC S5) and HW-CON-
FIG (SIMATIC S7). Older versions of the configuration software do not con-
tain these GSD files. For this reason, a disk is enclosed with the manual which
contains the current GSD files for the Push Button Panel.
Please refer to the following table for the GSD files to be used with your Push
Button Panel.

OEM PP32 Use the GSD files from Push Button Panel PP17-II.
OEM PP32/OP17 Use the GSD files from Push Button Panel PP17-II.
The following procedure is recommended in respect of the GSD files:
Step
1 Check whether your system is already provided with the special
GSD file required for your Push Button Panel. To do this, call in
the configuration software COM-PROFIBUS (SIMATIC S5) or
HW-CONFIG (SIMATIC S7).
COM-PROFIBUS
(SIMATIC S5)
HW-CONFIG
(SIMATIC S7)
If the corresponding entry already exists, the system already con-
tains the GSD files. In this case, skip the points 2 and 3 of these
instructions.
2 If the respective entry is not available in COM-PROFIBUS
(SIMATIC S5) or HW-CONFIG (SIMATIC S7), the GSD files
relevant to your Push Button Panel must be loaded in the system.
The GSD files for the Push Button Panels are contained on the disk
enclosed with this manual.
