Connection to a Siemens Step 7 - usage of the TURCK- example program
D301171 - IO-Link master 1108

The default-entry "Generic In 8 Byte" at slot 4 is therefore replaced by "Generic In 2 Byte"
from the hardware catalog.
Example for the parameterization of a generic sensor
The parameterization of a generic sensor via the hardware configurator is only possible if the
sensor provides parameters which can be set in IO-Link index 1.
According to the vendor documentation, the Siemens sensor used in this example provides
the following parameters in IO-Link index 1.
In order to set the "measuring range near /start (MBn)" from 110 mm to 500 mm, the following
value has to be written to index 1, subindex 7 + 8:
500 mm = 0000 0001 1111 0100 = 0×01F4
MSB subindex 7 = 0×01 = 1
LSB subindex 8 = 0×F4 = 244
