A GSD editor provides an easy way of editing GSD files and checking their syntax and semantics. The GSDEditor V5.0 is available to members free-of-charge from the PROFIBUS Organization under www.profibus.com > Downloads > Software and Tools. It offers an easy way of editing a GSD file on the basis of examples and templates. It also includes checking of GSD file syntax and semantics.
Note: If a configuration tool refuses to load a GSD file because it contains an error, this GSD Editor can be used to check the file.
