Installing the GSD file

Introduction

A GSD file (device data file) contains all the DP slave properties. If you want to configure a DP slave that does not appear in the hardware catalog, you must install the GSD file provided by the manufacturer. DP slaves installed via GSD files are displayed in the hardware catalog and can then be selected and configured.

Requirement

The hardware and network editor is closed.

You have access to the required GSD files in a directory on the hard disk.

Procedure

To install a GSD file, proceed as follows:

1. In the "Options" menu, select the "Install device master data files" command.

2. In the "Install device master data files" dialog box, choose the folder in which you want to save the GSD files.

3. Choose one or more files from the list of displayed GSD files.

4. Click on the "Install" button.

5. To create a log file for the installation, click on the "Save log file" button.

Any problems during the installation can be tracked down using the log file.

You will find the new DP slave installed by means of the GSD file in a new folder in the hardware catalog.
