Issue Details

I want to configure my CompactRIO PROFINET Slave module, but I can not find the GSDML file which is necessary to achieve proper communication with the master.

Solution

The GSDML file to be imported into your PROFINET IO-Controller configuration tool for the CompactRIO PROFINET module (cRIO-PN-S in short) by KUNBUS GmbH is included in its driver package. The driver is called cRIO PN by KUNBUS GmbH . The most convenient way to install it is through VI Package Manager using this direct link.


After installation is finished, the GSDML file is available on your computer in C:\Users\Public\Documents\KUNBUS GmbH\GSDML similar. The file's name format is GSDML-V[x.x]-Kunbus-cRIO PN-[yyyymmdd].xml.
