Integrated Controller for Hydraulics

Device master file and type files

Profibus-DP

A GSD is a readable ASCII text file and contains both general and device-specific specifications for communication. Each of the entries describes a feature that is supported by a device. By means of keywords, a configuration tool reads the device identification, the adjustable parameters, the corresponding data type and the permitted limit values for the configuration of the device from the GSD. Some of the keywords are mandatory, for example Vendor_Name. Others are optional, for example Sync_Mode_supported. A GSD replaces the previously conventional manuals and supports automatic checks for input errors and data consistency, even during the configuration phase.

The device database files (.GSD) are usable for all Profibus masters that are compatible to the standard and that are able to interpret them.
