Issue
How can I add a Profibus GSD file to Unity Pro library of Generic DTMs?
Product Line
EcoStruxure Control Expert, M580, M340, Quantum
Environment
BMEP581020 v2.70, TCSEGPA23F14F, Unity Pro v13.0.
Resolution
The TCSEGPA23F14F (PRM) is a standalone module designed to provide Profibus DPV0 & DPV1 master capability to the M340, M580, Premium and Quantum ranges. Profibus slave configuration is based on GSD that is a data base file with the device information and I/O configuration that is provided by the vendor's.
The PRM Master DTM and the PRM Gateway DTM includes an interface for converting any GSD file into a generic DTM in order to be integrated into the DTM catalog and used to configure a Profibus slave for the PRM.
P.S.: You can download here the PROFIBUS Remote Master iso file that includes the PRM Master DTM and PRM Gateway DTM.
