IODD and Port Configuration Tool - S7-PCT
Device description IODD
An electronic device description, the IODD file (IO Device Description), is available for each
device. The IODD provides a wealth of information for system integration:
•
Communication properties
•
Device parameters with value range and default value
•
Identification, process and diagnostic data
•
Device data
•
Text description
•
Image of the device
•
Manufacturer logo
The structure of the IODD is identical for all devices from all manufacturers. The structure of
the IODD is always represented in the same manner by the IO-Link configuration tools of the
master manufacturer (for Siemens, S7-PCT). This ensures that the handling is the same for all
IO-Link devices regardless of the manufacturer.
