Has anyone had experience connecting a Siemens Profibus-PA segment to DeltaV? I am unsure which GSD file to use.
I have an existing Siemens PLC which is being replaced by DeltaV as part of a larger plant upgrade. The PLC has 4 PA segments. Each segment has a DP/PA link (IM153-2), a DP/PA segment coupler (IM157) and about 12 devices. This also means it is a non-transparent interface so the devices have PA addresses, not DP addresses.
I have used the Siemens GSD-Tool to create a single gsd file from the gsd files of the devices on the segments but don't understand which gsd file option to use. I will not be able to connect a DeltaV controller to the segment to test it so wantd to ask the community:
Thanks.
