System Functions (continued)
6.4 Variant Configuration
The following two variants are available:
– Default
– Comprehensive Condition Monitoring
The functions remain unchanged in the process.
A protocol is transferred in the process data. The exact
function and the possible commands can be taken from
the User’s Guide.
Comprehensive Condition Monitoring provides an
additional byte of bit information and therefore has a
slightly slower cycle time.
After a variant changeover, an inconsistent
configuration may occur because there is no
automatic changeover of parameters.
It is therefore recommended that the setup be
done in the following order:
1.
Variant setting
2. Perform factory reset or set valid parameters.

Device Variant
This parameter indicates which variant is currently set. The
device variant can be changed either with this parameter
or by using the IO-Link compatibility mode. If this
parameter is written, the device variant is not changed
immediately but instead after the device is restarted.
If the device variant is changed via the IO-Link compatibility
mode, the change in this parameter is visible immediately.
This parameter is not changed by a reset.
The following device variants are available:
Value Meaning Description
0x0001 (1) Default The device can be used in the process data via the protocol.
0x0002 (2) Comprehensive Condition Monitoring The device can be used in the process data via the protocol,
but provides additional Condition Monitoring bit information
