Replacing the device
10.5.1
Device exchange with transmission of the current configuration data
NOTE
In order to replace a device that may have failed quickly and without major configura‐
tion effort, it is recommended to implement a device replacement concept.
IO-Link offers the option of automatically backing up the device parameter values as
a preventive measure using the "Backup/Restore" function in the IO-Link master and
thus keeping them available. The same applies after a change parameterization. After
exchanging a failed device with a device with the same device ID (identical type), the
master automatically parameterizes the exchange device.
10.5.2
Removing the device to be replaced
1.
Mark the position and alignment of the device on the bracket or surroundings.
2.
Disconnect the IO-Link interface of the device from the IO-Link master.
3.
Remove the connecting cable of any external trigger sensor.
4.
Detach device. Remove from the bracket.
