DDs are similar to the drivers that your personal computer
(PC) uses to operate peripheral devices connected to it.
General PROFIBUS Information:
• The Model 705 supports PA Profile Version 3.0
• The Ident Number issued by the PNO for Magnetrol
Model 705 3.x is 0x09B3. The Ident Number is included
in the name of the GSD file.
• The General Station Description (GSD) file provides
information on the features and performance capabilities
of a PROFIBUS device to allow easy configuration of
PROFIBUS networks with devices from different
manufacturers. The manufacturer-specific GSD file for PA
Model 705 3.x is Mag_09B3.gsd. Also, a bitmap file
specified in the GSD file provides a symbolic representa-
tion of the device for network configuration tools.
• The Model 705 3.x can also use the profile-specific GSD
file PA139703.gsd. If this general GSD file is used, the
“Ident number Selector” parameter in the Physical Block
must be set to the profile-specific ident number. The
default selection of the “Ident Number Selector”
parameter is the manufacturer-specific ident number.
• A Device Description is available for configuring the
device using Simatic PDM.
• The range of device bus addresses is 0 to 126. 126 is the
default address and all units will ship with address 126
unless a non-default address assignment is requested by
the customer. The address can be changed via the fieldbus
or the local LCD interface.

1.4 Intrinsic Safety
The IEC61158 physical layer supports Intrinsic Safety (IS)
applications with bus-powered devices. To accomplish this,
an IS barrier or galvanic isolator is placed between the
power supply in the safe area and the device in the
hazardous area.
