Project Planning Using Device Description

As with PROFIBUS DP, a field device is integrated into the project planning tool by way of a

device description. The field device properties are described in the GSD file. The GSD file con-

tains the field device data that you need to operate the device in a PROFINET network. This

includes technical features and information about communication.

Import the GSD file into a project planning tool. Assign peripheral addresses to the individual

channels of the field devices as usual. The peripheral input addresses incorporate the received

data. The user program evaluates and processes this data. The user program generates the

peripheral output values and sends them to the control interface.

Once project planning is complete, the IO controller receives the project planning and configu-

ration data. The IO controller parameterizes and configures the field devices automatically.

Downloading the GSD File

You can find the relevant GSD file in the Software section of the product detail page for the
