Phoenix Contacts GSD Files for Step 7

[JSlater]

Hello,

I am wanting to add the following Phoenix Contact units to an existing Profibus network on a SIMATIC Step 7 configuration and I need the GSD files. Could anyone please help as to where I can get them.

IB IL 24 DO 8 - Part Number 2726269

IB IL 24 DI 8 - Part Number 2726227

Any help would be appreciated.

Is this new or adding to an existing phoenix contact node?

If existing then you will already have the GSD file.

If new, then the gsd file is available for the bus coupler under "downloads" then "device description".

However check you bus coupler model and search on the Phoenix we site

It was to add to an existing bus coupler (IL PB BK DP/V1). When I was trying to insert an object into my existing configuration for the unit it was not displaying any of the input or output units I needed.

I downloaded the GSD file for the bus coupler from the link you supplied and it is now displaying the I/O units and I'm able to add them to my configuration.

This is exactly what I needed so thanks a lot for your help.
