: Without this file, a PROFINET master cannot communicate with the Metal Work hardware. You can find this and updated versions on the official Metal Work Software Download page.
: The EB 80 system supports fast cycle times, and the 20180115 update refined the data mapping to ensure efficient communication between the valves and the master PLC. 🛠️ Why This File Matters
For deep configuration, Metal Work also provides the EB 80 Manager software , which works alongside these GSDML files to perform offline configuration and advanced troubleshooting of the valve island.
: This version ensures compatibility with advanced PLC environments like Siemens TIA Portal. It allows the PROFINET controller to recognize the EB 80 manifold as a specific node on the network, defining its communication parameters and modular structure.
: The GSDML file reflects the EB 80's physical modularity. You can virtually assemble your valve manifold in your programming software to match the physical hardware, including: Solenoid valves (3/2, 5/2, 5/3 functions). Digital and analog Input/Output (I/O) modules. Proportional pressure regulators.
