Maximum Amount of IO-Link Process Data
By selecting the connection, you determine the maximum number of bytes of the IO-Link
process data, which applies to all connected IO-Link devices: 4, 16 or 32 bytes By select-
ing the connection, you also specify the process data memory required in the controller.
If you use one or more IO-Link device with more than 16 bytes of IO-Link process data,
select a connection with “... 32 bytes per IO-Link port.” This connection requires 276 input
data bytes and 276 output data bytes in the controller.
If you use only IO-Link devices wit 16 bytes of IO-Link process data or less, and you
would like to use less process data memory in the controller, select a connection with “...
16 bytes per IO-Link port.” This connection requires 148 input data bytes and 148 output
data bytes in the controller.
If you use only IO-Link devices wit 4 bytes of IO-Link process data or less, and you would
like to use as little process data memory in the controller as possible, select a connection
with “... 4 bytes per IO-Link port.” This connection requires 52 input data bytes and 52
output data bytes in the controller.

Connection
Name
Description
Connection 1
Exclusive Owner –
32 bytes per IO-Link
port
•
Standard connection
•
The port parameters are set with the configuration software of
the scanner and transferred to the module through this con-
nection.
•
The scanner can read the module’s input data and write the
output data.
•
IO-Link devices with up to 32 IO-Link input and output data
points each can be used.
Connection 2
Exclusive Owner –
32 bytes per IO-Link
port without config
•
No port parameters are transferred to the module through this
connection.
•
The scanner can read the module’s input data and write the
output data.
•
IO-Link devices with up to 32 IO-Link input and output data
points each can be used.
Connection 3
Listen only –
32 bytes per IO-Link
port
•
No port parameters are transferred to the module through this
connection.
•
The scanner can read the module’s input data.
•
An additional scanner that communicates with module via an
“Exclusive Owner” connection is necessary.
•
IO-Link devices with up to 32 IO-Link input and output data
points each can be used.
Connection 4
Input Only – 32 bytes
per IO-Link port
•
The port parameters are set with the configuration software of
the scanner and transferred to the module through this con-
nection.
•
The scanner can read the module’s input data.
•
IO-Link devices with up to 32 IO-Link input and output data
points each can be used.
Connection 5
Exclusive Owner –
16 bytes per IO-Link
port
•
Standard connection
•
The port parameters are set with the configuration software of
the scanner and transferred to the module through this con-
nection.
•
The scanner can read the module’s input data and write the
output data.
•
IO-Link devices with up to 16 IO-Link input and output data
points each can be used.
