Operation
The 871TM sensor conforms to V1.0 of the IO-Link standard. The
parameters of the sensor are defined in Index 1. Index 1 consists of 128 bits of
data. Data starts at an offset of 80 bits. When using explicit messages to read
and change the sensor, configuration of the whole index must be read/written
to.
Open the Controller Tag viewer and locate the tag that is named
Sensor_Channel. Set this tag to equal the channel number the 871TM sensor
is connected to on the 1734-4IOL module.
Read the 871TM Configuration Via Explicit Message
Toggle the Read_Index contact on rung 1. This action runs the Message
instruction to read the data that is contained in Index 1.
TIP
Select the contact and press Ctrl-T to toggle contacts.
