Hello Tekabi; Your thread is, at the very least, interesting, and certainly ambitious. Would you mind explaining with a bit more detail why you would need to generate a gsd file for a s7-400H system? Siemens themselves do not provide one. Do you intend to use the s7-400H as a Profibus slave to another controller system? Or do you have something different in mind? The GSD editor is normally available to manufacturers of Profibus-DP (and now Profinet) slaves, so that they provide standard information in a standardized form so they can be integrated by a Profibus/Profinet master configuration software. It is free for download to PI (Profibus International) members, who need to have their Profibus equipment certified by PI labs for market: ttp://www.profibus.com/nc/download/software-and-tools/downloads/profibus-gsd-editor-v50/display/ I take it you are not ready (or willing to pay the fees) to become a PI member. Version 4.1 of the GSD editor used to be available for download, but I do not know if it is still the case. It came without manuals, as training was provided by PI to certified members only. we used it only to validate gsd files we obtained from manufacturers in our projects. See the following discussion, from 2008: GSD File Edit Program - Service & Support - Siemens Please come back with information on your project so we can provide suggestions and possible hints. Hope this helps, Daniel Chartier
