IO-Link functions
8.1.
IO-Link
Version 1.0 /
1.1
This device can be operated with an IO-Link master according to IO-Link version 1.0 and
version 1.1. Version-specific functions such as data storage (version 1.1) are
only supported in combination with a suitable IO-Link master.
8.2.
Data Storage
Each IO-Link master of IO-Link version 1.1 features data storage in which an image of the
IO-Link device configuration can be stored. When a device is replaced, the stored configuration
is automatically transferred to the new device. This guarantees minimal downtime. Validation
must be switched on in order to use the data storage. For information about the configuration of
data storage and validation, please refer to the user's guide of the respective IO-Link master.
8.3.
Block
Configuration
The device supports block configuration. This allows all parameters in a
data block to be consistently imported from a controller or a configuration tool into the
device.
8.4.
Resetting to
Factory
Settings
The factory settings on the device can be restored by running the
"restore factory settings" system command.
0x82 must be written to Index 2 Subindex 0 for the command.
The extension port setting is not reset in this process.
