6.3.7 IO-Link
This unit has an IO-Link communication interface which requires an IO-Link
capable module (IO-Link master) for operation.
The IO-Link interface enables direct access to the process and diagnostic data
and provides the possibility to set the parameters of the unit during operation.
In addition, communication is possible via a point-to-point connection with a USB
IO-Link master.
The IODDs necessary for the configuration of the unit, detailed information about
process data structure, diagnostic information, parameter addresses and the
necessary information about required IO-Link hardware and software can be
found at www.ifm.com.
6.3.8 Simulation functions
Various levels and errors can be simulated for set-up, maintenance or interference
reduction. The duration of the simulation can be selected (1 min...1 h). The
simulation can be started manually and runs until it is stopped manually or the
set time elapses. During the simulation the outputs respond according to the
.
