Datalogic units are slave devices and comply with the "Profibus-DP
Profile for Encoders"; they can be set to either Class 1 or Class 2
devices (see section "6.2 Classes of the Device profile" on page 29).
Refer to the official Profibus website for any information not reported
in this manual (www.profibus.com).
6.1 GSD file
Profibus encoders are supplied with their own GSD file Ax58_Vx.GSx
(see
the
enclosed
documentation,
if
supplied,
or
click
www.datalogic.com).
WARNING
Install the AMT58-xxx-13x12-PB.GSx in the AMT58 series multiturn
encoders.
Vx is intended to indicate the GSD file version.
GSD installation file is further available in both Italian (AMT58-xxx-
13x12-PB.GSI) and English (AMT58-xxx-13x12-PB.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.GSx
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).
