Hardware
configuration
The IO-Link / standard I/O modules must now be configured appropriately for the
configuration of the header module.
If necessary, these can be taken over into the configuration table from the hardware catalog
by means of drag & drop.
By default, all ports are set to Standard I/O.
If the port is to be configured as an IO-Link port, the module must be deleted and replaced
with an IO-Link module.
Slots 2..5 are reserved for the IO-Link ports / standard I/O ports.
Module addressing:
Double-click on the IO-Link modules and the remaining addressable modules to change the
addressing in the "Addresses" window.
Configuring the IO-Link module:
A suitable IO-Link module that corresponds to the process data length of the IO-Link device
must be selected in the catalog and dragged to the appropriate slot by means of drag &
drop.
The process data length required by the device in each case can be obtained from the
manual of the IO-Link device.
Configuring a standard input / output:
If one of the possible port pins (pin 4) is to be configured with a standard function (input,
output), the "Standard I/O" placeholder module must be used for the corresponding slot.
To address the inputs and outputs, input pin 2 / 4 and output 2 /4 must be taken over from
the catalog and used in the configuration according to the given modules.
For the SIO function, integrate the "IO-Link input with SIO mode" module.
With the remaining modules, the various functions are mapped into the process data areas.
A description of the individual modules is provided in chapter "Bitmapping and function".
