The fieldbus module file system supports only device names in "8+3" format, i.e. with a restricted
name length. Since IODD files are generally published with a long file name, these must be
renamed and given a shorter naming scheme before downloading to the fieldbus module. For this
a help setting is provided in the dialog, with the associated required IODD file name for the currently
connected IO-Link devices shown in the bottom section of the list. The IODD file and image file for
downloading must first be renamed to this name on the PC:
Image files without IODD can also be uploaded; the images are still displayed in the port dialog.
Using the "Delete" button you can delete IODDs and device images from the fieldbus when
needed.
Note
Before selecting the IODD rename it on the PC to the "8+3" file name shown
on the PC under "IODD Filename"!
