8.3.2 Description of the modules
The data structure is described from the perspective of the automation system:
• Input data: are sent from the device to the automation system
• Output data: are sent from the automation system to the device
Analog Input module
Transmission of input variables from the device to the automation system:
Analog Input modules cyclically transmit the selected input variables, including the status,
from the device to the automation system. The input variable is depicted in the first four
bytes in the form of a floating point number as per the IEEE 754 standard. The fifth byte
contains status information pertaining to the input variable. The "Pressure" Analog Input
module in Slot 1 is contained in the pressure PA PROFILE GSD. The other Analog Input
modules can only be used with the manufacturer GSD.
