How to create a .HWD file!

2017-05-18View Original

Thread Content

It involves communication issues between the ABB DCS Profibus card CI854 and Siemens’ Profibus communication card. A file with the .HWD suffix is required. File regarding PLC addresses. Generate ABB’s corresponding address file using ABB CBM. I don’t know much about Siemens’ PLCs. I’m seeking help from experts – how can I create a file with the .HWD extension? If the PLC models are the same, are the .HWD files also the same?

Profibus is generally configured for communication through GSD files, right?

ABB is required to convert the .HWD file into a .GSD file through CBM.
