Manual Communication module UR20-4COM-IO-LINK
Activating an IO-Link port
You must be connected to the fieldbus coupler.
Activating an IO-Link port
▶
In the
device tree
, switch to the required IO-Link master.
▶
For the IO-Link port that you want to activate, click
Acti-
vate (play icon)
.
The “Operating mode” parameter of the IO-Link port con-
cerned is set to the value “IO-Link”. The supply voltage of the
IO-Link port is switched on. The connected IO-Link device
sends and receives process data.
Deactivating an IO-Link port
You must be connected to the fieldbus coupler.
Deactivating an IO-Link port
▶
In the
device tree
, switch to the required IO-Link master.
▶
For the IO-Link port that you want to deactivate, click
Deactivate (stop icon)
.
The “Operating mode” parameter of the IO-Link port con-
cerned is set to the value “Deactivated”. The supply voltage
of the IO-Link port is switched off.
Identifying a connected IO-Link device
The IO-Link port to which the IO-Link device is connected
must be activated.
Identifying an IO-Link device
The configurator can determine the identification data of a
connected IO-Link device. You can use the identification data
to find the corresponding IODD or to check whether you
have assigned the correct IO-Link device to the IO-Link port.
▶
In the
device tree
, switch to the required IO-Link master.
▶
For the IO-Link port to which the IO-Link device is con-
nected, click
Identify (magnifying class icon)
.
The Configurator calls up the identification data of the
IO-Link device and illustrates it in the IO-Link port overview.
If you have already assigned an IO-Link device to this
IO-Link port, the Configurator compares the identification
data of the IODD with the identification data of the connect
-
ed IO-Link device. Matches are highlighted in green. Devia-
tions are highlighted in red.
Downloading IODDs for a connected IO-Link device
The connected IO-Link device must be identified by the IO-
Link Configurator. Your computer must be connected to the
Internet.
Downloading IODDs
▶
In the
device tree
, switch to the required IO-Link master.
▶
For the empty IO-Link port, click
Download
IODD
to
which you want to add the IO-Link device.
The IODDfinder is opened in your standard browser.
▶
Search for the required IODDs and load the files onto your
computer.
Reading out IO-Link device parameters
The IO-Link device must be assigned to the IO-Link port.
The connected IO-Link device must be identified by the
IO-Link Configurator. The IODD must match the connected
IO-Link device.
Depending on the number of parameters to be read and the
capacity utilisation of the coupler, it may take a while until all
data is read.
▶
In the
device tree
, switch to the required IO-Link master.
▶
For the IO-Link device whose data you want to edit, click
Edit (cog icon)
.
The
detailed view
of the IO-Link device is opened.
Updating the parameters
If you want to update an individual parameter:
▶
Click the
update icon
next to the entry.
