IODDfinder
The IODDfinder is a cross-vendor, central IO-Link database.
This database provides you with the latest IODDs of the device manufacturers and offers an
information and download platform.
The IODD finder is available on the Internet (

).
IO-Link configuration tool
Configuration tools are required to configure the entire IO-Link system. The IO-Link
configuration tools of the master manufacturers are able to read IODDs.
The main tasks of the IO-Link configuration tool include:
•
Assignment of devices to the master ports
•
Address assignment of the ports within the address area of the master
•
Parameter assignment of the IO-Link devices
Diagnostics can also be carried out on the connected devices.
This means the IO-Link configuration tool supports the transparent representation of the IO-
Link system down to field level.
Siemens provides S7-PCT for engineering of the IO-Link system.
You can find the relevant device description file, software and function manuals in SIOS.
