3.5.3 Manufacturer specific GSD files: KR024501.GSD and YP024501.GSD
The KR024501.GSD file is for use with the standard DP/PA coupler and the YP024501.GSD file is 
for use with the transparent DP/PA coupler SK2/SK3 of Pepperl & Fuchs (up to 12 MBaud on the 
DP segment).
It should be noted that both GSD files support device functionality as described below:
• AI: Analog Input Function Block
• FB: Function Block
• X: Block number 1, 5, 6, 7 or 8
There will be two additional output values available by changing the function block channel 
parameters of the above mentioned "Analog Input Function Blocks".
There are separate settings to select the units for local display and PROFIBUS. Modifications of 
the units of the display will have no effect on the data transferred via PROFIBUS. A master class 
2 tool is required to modify the units for PROFIBUS transfer.
INFORMATION!
For devices with MBP interface there are always two types of GSD files in our GSD compilation:
•
One standard GSD file for a standard DP/PA segment coupler with file name: "KR0
…
.GSD"
•
One special GSD file specific for the segment coupler SK2/SK3 of Pepperl & Fuchs with file 
name: "YP0
…
.GSD"
