10-4 Specifications
This section gives the specifications and part names of the IO-Link Master Unit, describes its functions,
and provides wiring diagrams.
 Communications Specifications
The following table gives the EtherCAT communications specifications of the GX-ILM08C.
Refer to "6-1 EtherCAT Communications Specifications" in Page 6 - 2 for the EtherCAT
communications specifications for GX-series Digital I/O Slave Units, Analog I/O Slave Units, and
Encoder Input Slave Units.
*1 The EtherCAT Remote I/O Terminal conforms to EtherCAT standards. Confirm the specifications of the
connected EtherCAT master for the support topology. The EtherCAT Remote I/O Terminal with unit version 1.2
or later supports a ring topology.
