5.4.3 Position detection
When using the IO-Link interface, the magnet position can be evaluated exactly via a dimensionless
process data value between 0...4000. The process data value is linearly proportional to the magnet
position.
Thanks to accurate position detection, process deviations can be monitored, such as the drift of an
operation as well as wear and soiling. In this way, quality monitoring can be carried out independently
of switch points by the PLC.

5.4.4 Inline material detection
With inline material detection, objects can be recognised, compared and counted. This can be done
using accurate position detection via IO-Link or the physical switching outputs and the LED display.
