8.5 Soft Starter Configuration
8.5.1 Introduction
This consists of configuring and parameterizing soft starters.

8.5.2 Configuration with the GSD File
Definition of the GSD
The device master file (GSD) contains DP slave descriptions in a uniform format.
Use of the GSD simplifies the configuration of the DP master and the DP slave.
Configuration with the GSD File
Soft starters are configured using the GSD file. Via the GSD file, the soft starter
is embedded into your system as a standard slave.
