GSD (General Station Description) files
=======================================

This archive contains the Profinet device description files and
accompanying image files for SCHUNK IO-Link devices using for
SCHUNK devices using the SFP (SCHUNK Flexible Protocol).


The different gripper variants wihtin the families use different DAP (device
access points) and different module_ident_number. This enables the PLC
to easily distinguish between the various variants. The different variants
use dedicated icons (graphic representations).


You can unzip this archive and then import the extracted directory
with GSD and graphics files into your PLC and/or development environment.
