5.1 PROFINET IO configuration
Introduction
The GSDML file allows you to configure RF180C in STEP 7 V5.3 + SP 2 or higher or as of
TIA Portal V11. The GSDML file must have been installed beforehand in the configuration
software.
Requirements
● A GSDML file is required to integrate the RF180C into the hardware configuration of the
SIMATIC Manager:
GSDML-V2.2-SIEMENS-RF180C-"date in format yyyymmdd.xml"
You will find the file on the DVD "RFID Systems Software & Documentation
(http://support.automation.siemens.
com/WW/view/en/65102624) in the directory
"Daten\PROFI_GSD\RF180C".
● The RF180C must have a valid IO device name. The default device name is "RF180C".
Configuring the RF180C on PROFINET IO
Follow the steps below to configure the RF180C on PROFINET IO with STEP 7:
1. Run HW Config in STEP 7, then select "Options > Install GSD Files".
2. In the dialog that opens, select the GSDML file you want to install and confirm with "OK".
Result: The RF180C is displayed in the HW catalog under "PROFINET IO > Ident
Systems > SIMATIC RFID".
3. Create a new project.
