7.1 Device Library
The device library is the local collection of descriptions for types of PROFINET I/O devices.
The parameters used for configuring an IO-Device are contained in a GSDML file (Generic Station
Description Markup Language), commonly called a GSD. A GSD may contain one or more IO-Devi-
ce descriptions.
The device library is used to store GSD files and to provide a graphic view. Using this graphic view, it
is possible to manually insert IO-Devices into the current configuration. The device library is also ac-
cessed during automatic detection of IO-devices present on the network.
Context Menu
For the nodes in the device library tree context menus exists. The entries depend on the type of the
selected node.
This menu is also accessible via the main menu. For a detailed description see 'Libray Menu'.
