GSD file reading error.

[Jan-Egil-G]

im trying to use this file; ABB0959.gsd.

when reading it in i get alot of error messages. is this because some gsd functionality is still missing in this sw? will this cause trouble in getting comm running?

its a little hard to troubleshoot, due to gsd editor and profibus std is for members only, cost money.

Thanks for your question.

Pyprofibus currently doesn't implement parsing of the gsd sections that it doesn't need. It will emit a warning for those sections to make clear to the user which sections are ignored.

These messages are warnings, not errors.
