Hello Ashok; The answer is, in a nutshell, yes. But it begs the question: Why would you want to create a gsd file? A gsd file provides the user of a Profibus (and now Profinet) slave with information that the master can use to prepare data exchanges over the bus. Look at the Profibus.com gsd file information on this link (open the gsd examples to see how a gsd file is formatted): http://www.profibus.com/products/gsd-files/ So if you are a manufacturer of a Profibus/Profinet slave device, you would create the gsd file for that slave and distribute it to buyers of that slave so they can integrate them in the master's Profibus/ Profinet configurator.With the gsd/gsdml file imported in the configurator you tell the master how much data the slave will exchange, what bus speeds it supports, and everything else the master needs to know about that slave. Outside of that case there is no need for a user to create or modify a gsd file. If you are a producer of Profibus/Profinet slaves, and you are a member of the PI International, then you can download gsd editors to create and modify yoyr slave's gsd and gsdml files for certification and distribution from profibus.com. See the attachment to this post (the key symbol means that non-members are not allowed to dowload the files). Hope this helps, Daniel Chartier |

Search for "Atlas copco" here in forum. Perhaps those threads might help you. Best regards, Hristo Mihalev

Hello ashok; What Atlas Copco controller are you trying to interface with over Profibus-DP? Each controller has a different gsd file, and its own programming particularities. Once you have the model name, try searching for information (including the specific gsd file for your controller) on the Atlas Copco corporate site, such as in the following link: http://www.atlascopco.ca/caus/overallsearch.aspx?oq=profibus Hope this helps, Daniel; Chartier |
