<strong>Encoder</strong> gateway installation<br />

2.4 Shielding philosophy<br />

2.5 GSD file<br />

18<br />

To achieve the highest possible noise immunity and resistance<br />

against other EMI related disturbances the bus and power supply<br />

cables shall always be shielded. The screen should be connected<br />

to ground on both ends of the cable. In certain cases<br />

compensation current might flow over the screen. There<strong>for</strong>e a<br />

potential compensation wire is recommended.<br />

In order to start using the <strong>PROFIBUS</strong> <strong>DP</strong> gateway, a device<br />

description file needs to be downloaded and imported to the<br />

configuration software. The device description file is called a<br />

Generic Station Description file and contains the necessary<br />

implementation parameters needed <strong>for</strong> a <strong>PROFIBUS</strong> <strong>DP</strong> device.<br />

Available GSD files can be downloaded from<br />

The GSD data is saved in the <strong>PROFIBUS</strong> master and transferred<br />

once to the gateway when the system is powered on. If the<br />

gateway has been started with one GSD file and a new GSD file<br />

with a different ID-number shall be used, the gateway needs to be<br />

restarted be<strong>for</strong>e it can use the new GSD file.
