IO-Link has been adapted for this application; it
is not a standard IO-Link interface!
IO-Link is the first globally standardized IO technology
(IEC 61131-9) for communicating with sensors and also
actuators. The powerful point-to-point communication is
based on the familiar 3-wire sensor and actuator
connection technology without any additional requirements
for the cable material. IO-Link therefore is not a fieldbus,
but an evolutionary further development of the tried-and-
tested connection technology for sensors and actuators.
The connection between the gateway and BCM is realized
via an IO-Link interface. It is only possible to connect one
BCM sensor to the gateway. Other IO-Link devices are not
supported.
