Each Profibus instrument gets an unambiguous ident number (ID number) from the Profibus user organisation (PNO). This ID number is also included in the name of the GSD file. For VEGABAR 54 the ID number is 0 x 076F(hex) and the GSD file BR__076F.GSD. As an option to this manufactur- er-specific GSD file, PNO provides also a general so-called profile-specific GSD file.
