6.8 REST API
Via the REST-API interface, identification data, process
data and configuration settings of the IO-Link master and
other connected devices can be requested and modified.
The REST API interface is also used by the user interface
of the web interface for communication with the module.
The REST API specification implemented in the module is
saved in YAML files in the device and can be downloaded
( i
nfO
> l
Ocal dOcuMentS
) and displayed, e.g., in the
Swagger Editor (http://editor.swagger.io/).
The present module supports the following REST APIs:
– Generic REST API for Balluff devices and applications.
Base path of the REST API in the module:
http://[ip-address]/api/balluff/v1/
– The REST API ( JSON for IO-Link ) standardized by the
IO-Link community.
The c
Onnected
iO-l
inK deviceS
bar also displays help in the
form of a list of currently connected IO-Link devices as well
as the associated, required IODD file name (column iOdd
f
ilenaMe
).
To avoid manual renaming of the associated image
files, we recommend uploading ZIP files with the
IODD content.

Output test
Via the O

online. To set the output to either 0 or 1, the respective pin
must be configured first as a d
igital
O
utput
via the i/O

dialog. At a physical port, a maximum of 2 pins can
be configured accordingly, depending on the variant. This
can either be confirmed via i/O p
