(1) Installing the GSD file
An example of installation using Siemens’s STEP7 HardWare Configuration (hereinafter referred to as “HW Config”) is
explained. To define a gateway, a GSD file for the gateway must be downloaded in advance. The GSD file you need is
“IAIOB2F.gsd,” which can be downloaded from our website.
In this section, the procedure is explained using the following system configuration as an example.
Launch the HW Config software and install the downloaded GSD file. Select
Options from the menu bar and left-click
Install New GSD in the pull-down menu.
When the GSD file has been successfully imported, a new “ANYBUS-PDP” level is created in the catalog window of HW
