Modify the information:
•
Application Specific Name (ASN):
The purpose of the Application
Specific Name is to add theme naming to distinguish the sensors
within a machine and the associated project profile in the Add-on
Profile (AOP). The ASN allows for easier maintenance and
operation since the device is further identified by how it is used on
the machine/project.
•
Electronic Keying Information:
Select Exact Match or Disabled
from the pull-down menu. The Exact Match and Disabled keying
options in this dialog correspond to the Compatible and No Check
keying options in IO-Link terminology, respectively.
When Exact Match is selected, the connected IO-Link device must
have the same Vendor ID, Device ID, and Revision information that
has been configured for that channel. If they do not match, IO-Link
communications are not established and a Keying Fault status bit is
set. When Disabled is selected, key check is not performed.
•
Process Data Input:
Select the input data from the pull-down menu
(for devices that support multiple layouts of input data).
Click OK.
