12 Specific data IO-Link (pin 6)
IO-Link process data and parameters can be set via pin 6 for the motorized linear actuator eSyStep. The assignment of the
connectors and the current consumption of the actuator are non-compliant with the IO-Link specification.
12.1 Operation on IO-Link
12.1.1 Operation on PLC as a 24 V device
The motorized actuator GEMÜ eSyStep can be operated directly in a PLC control unit without limitations. Technical data of the
product and of PLC must be complied with.

12.1.2 Operation on PLC and additional parameterization via USB master with galvanic isolation
Basics
When operating the product on a PLC control unit, a parameterization via a USB IO-Link master is possible at the same time. In
this case, a galvanically isolated USB interface must be used. The PC/laptop can be used as usual and all peripheral devices
can remain connected.
Connection
1. Connect
pin 3
(
L-
) of the master with
pin 2
(
GND)
of the product.
2. Connect
pin 4
(
CQ)
of the master with
pin 6
of the product.
During IO-Link operation, pin 6
cannot
be evaluated by the PLC control unit as an output signal.
