6.5.2 Selection of the GSD file in the measuring device
Depending on which GSD file is used in the PROFIBUS master system, the corresponding GSD
file has to be configured in the device by means of the SELECTION GSD function.
BASIC FUNCTION (G) PROFIBUS DP/PA (GBA/GCA) OPERATION (614) SELECTION
GSD (6140)
Example
Before configuration takes place, a decision should be made as to which GSD file should be
used to configure the measuring device in the PROFIBUS master system. Below, the use of
the manufacturer-specific GSD file (complete device functionality) is shown using
PROFIBUS PA as an example:
Select the manufacturer-specific GSD file in the measuring device by means of the
SELECTION GSD function.

(6140) Selection: MANUFACT. SPEC. (factory setting)
1. Before configuring the network, load the corresponding GSD file into the configuration
system/master system.
!
Note!
When installing the GSD file, always first use the GSD file with the extended format
(EH3x1527.gsd). However, if the installation or the configuration of the device fails
with this format, then use the standard GSD (EH3_1527.gsd).
Example for the configuration software Siemens STEP 7 of the Siemens PLC family S7-
300/400:
Use the GSD file with the extended format (EH3x1527.gsd). Copy the file to the
subdirectory "…siemensstep7s7datagsd". The GSD files also include bitmap files. These
bitmap files are used to display the measuring points in image form. The bitmap files
must be saved to the directory "…siemensstep7s7datansbmp".
If you are using configuration software other than that referred to above, ask your
PROFIBUS master system manufacturer which directory you should use.
2. The measuring device is a modular PROFIBUS slave, i.e. the desired module
configuration (input and output data) must be performed in the next step. This can be
done directly by means of the configuration software. A detailed description of the
modules supported by the measuring device as follows:
PROFIBUS DP → 105
PROFIBUS PA→ 115
