Cycle settings
With this parameter, the IO-Link communication speed can
be set. The IO-Link cycle time can be increased calculated
by the multiplier and the time base.
The time base is described in Tab. 2-5, the multiplier is
entered as a decimal number from 0…63.

Multiplier Bit 0…5: Multiplier
These bits contain a 6-bit
multiplier for calculating the
MasterCycleTime or
MinCycle Time. Value

0…63.
Bit 6…7: Time Base
These bits specify the time
base for calculating the
MasterCycleTime or
MinCycleTime.

Validation settings
No validation : Validation deactivated, every device is
accepted.
Compatibility : Manufacturer ID and Device ID are
compared with the data of the IO-Link device.
Identity
: Manufacturer ID and Device ID, as well as the
serial number, are compared with the data of the IO-Link
device. IO-Link communication is only started if they
match.
Parameter server
Switched on : Data retention functions active, parameter
data and identification data of the IO-Link device are saved
in a remanent memory.
Switched off : Data retention functions deactivated, saved
parameter data and identification data of the IO-Link
devices remain in the memory.
Deleted : Data retention functions deactivated, saved
parameter data and identification data of the IO-Link
devices are deleted.
Enable upload
: If only the upload is enabled, in each case
the master starts an upload of the parameter data. In this
case the upload is performed irrespective of the upload
flag of the IO-Link device. If there are no data in the master
port, an upload also takes place (e.g. after deletion of the
data or before the first data upload).
Enable download : If only the download is enabled, in
each case the master starts a download of the parameter
data. In this case the download is also performed
irrespective of the upload flag of the IO-Link device.
If there are no data in the master port, an upload takes
place first (e.g. after deletion of the data or before the first
data upload).
Upload and download enabled : If the upload and
download are enabled, a distinction is made for different
parameter records depending on the upload flag of the
IO-Link device.
If there are no data in the IO-Link master port, an initial
upload takes place (e.g. after deletion of the data or before
the first data upload).
If the upload flag is set at the IO-Link device, the parameter
data are uploaded in each case.
If no upload flag is set and parameter data have already
been stored, a download of the parameter data takes
place in each case.
After uploading the parameter data, the Vendor ID
and Device ID of the connected IO-Link device
remain stored until the data records are deleted.
When the connected IO-Link device is started a
validation takes place and then only an IO-Link
device of the same type can be used for the data
retention.
If a different type of IO-Link device should be
used, the content of the parameter server must be
deleted.
The data storage is only supported by IO-Link
devices with IO-Link Revision 1.1.
