Installing GSD file

For the subsequent configuration of the IO devices, e.g., BCL 248i, the corresponding GSD file must be
loaded first. In this file, all data necessary for operating the BCL 248i is described in modules. These are in-
put and output data and device parameters for the functioning of the BCL 248i and the definition of the con-
trol and status bits.
Ä Install the GSD file associated with the BCL 248i in the PROFINET-IO Manager of your control.

Configuration

Ä Configure the PROFINET-IO system with the HW Config of the SIMATIC Manager by inserting the
BCL 248i into your project.
ð Here, an IP address is assigned to a unique "device name".

Transmit the configuration to the IO controller

Ä Transmit the PROFINET-IO configuration to the IO controller (S7 PLC).
After correct transmission to the IO controller (S7 PLC), the PLC automatically carries out the following ac-
tivities:
• Check of device names
• Assignment of the IP addresses that were configured in the HW Config to the IO devices
• Establishment of a connection between the IO Controller and configured IO devices
• Cyclical data exchange
