When planning Profibus devices, a device is depicted as a modular system with a header
module and several data modules. The screenshots shown here have been taken from the
configuration software of the Siemens HW config.
The device data required for project planning is saved in GSDML files (Generic Station
Description Markup Language). The GSDML files are available in two languages as an
Internet download (www.balluff.com). The data modules of an IO-Link block are displayed in
the project planning software according to the slot.
The GSDML file makes the possible data modules available (input or output of different data
ranges). For configuration of the IO-Link blocks, the corresponding data modules are
assigned to a slot.
Integration of the
module
The device can be found by searching in the catalog and inserted in the Profinet section by
drag & drop.
The module BNIPNTxxx105Z015 with the
submodules PN-IO, port 1-M12, port 2-M12 are used for
Profinet communication.
In X1 PN-IO, functions such as prioritized run-up or the domains for the ring topology can be
selected.
In slot 0 the port function (input, output, diagnostics input) or diagnostics messages can be
defined.
