Enable PDO Write From Attached Devices Port Page
The purpose of this feature is for a non-production type of demonstration of the IOLM. You can enable
this feature to get familiar with IO-Link or if you are commissioning a system and want to be able to
test/get familiar with devices. It allows you to interact with a PDO device that does not have a PLC
connection.
You must have set and signed into the IO-Link Master using an admin password.
Note: The PDO write will not allow writes if the IOLM has a PLC connection. This should never be
enabled in a production environment.
Use this procedure to enable PDO to write from the Attached Devices | Port page.

If necessary, log into the IOLM using the Administrator account.
