Sir I'am new here, my problem was we have a device model already obsolete Micropilot FMR240 and we replace it Micropilot FMR51 how do we configure this device using hardware configuration.

I already tried attaching new gsd file and copy the profibus node address on that particular object.

When I click PDM and Uploading the device parameter it is showing "Communication error"

Hope Someone could help.

Thank you

Hello jhann, 

the normal way is described here:

Chapter: 6.8 and following

However, a communication error can have sveral reasons.

- wrong pre-assigned adress of the devices

- not physaically connected 

etc.
