SensorHub resources
SensorHub resources refer to additional external sensors that are connected to the
motor feedback system.
The actual connectivity for external sensors depends on the individual product variant
and is specified in the product data sheet.
Connectivity for external sensors is divided into two categories:
•
Simple I/Os (inputs, outputs) are connected directly to a suitable DSL motor feed‐
back system. Included in this category, for example, are temperature sensors, tem‐
perature switches or digital I/Os. Motor feedback systems with simple I/O connec‐
tions are generally standard products.
•
Enhanced sensors are connected to an external SensorHub component, which
itself has a defined interface to the DSL motor feedback system. This architecture
is used if several external sensors, or sensors with complex interfaces, are to be
connected (e.g. torque or acceleration sensors). SensorHub components are nor‐
mally customer-specific and are developed in collaboration with SICK.

Access simple I/Os
This resource enables access to simple I/Os connected directly to the motor feedback
system.
Direct read access to access simple I/Os returns the defining values:

The availability of read or write access depends on the product variant. Access to an
input or output in a non-specific direction produces an error message (see
, error 41h).
