On the ORBISPHERE CD, there is an “Orbi3218.gsd” and an “Orbi3218.bmp” file available in
the “Profibus DP” folder to help configure the PROFIBUS-DP. The GSD file contains the
following elements:
• The module Gateway Version >= 2.0 - n channel for receiving data from the instrument,
and where n is 1, 2 or 3 relating to the number of channels in use.
Note: Gateway version >= 2.0 and user software version >= 2.15 are mandatory
• The module Gateway Version < 2.0 for receiving data from an instrument equipped with a
profibus gateway version < 2.0 or user software < 2.15. In this case, data from 3 channels
are sent whatever the number of channels configured for the instrument.
1. Install the PROFIBUS-DP module and the jumper J3 on the main board (location highlighted
in the illustration below).
2. Select the menu "Configuration/RS-485" and choose "PROFIBUS-DP" as the protocol.
3. Select the menu "Configuration/PROFIBUS-DP", choose the slave address and restart the
instrument.
