8 IO-Link
8.1 General information
This unit has an IO-Link communication interface which requires an IO-Link-
capable module (IO-Link master) for operation.
The IO-Link interface enables direct access to the sensor values and parameters
and provides the possibility to set the parameters of the unit during operation.
In addition communication is possible via a point-to-point connection with a USB
adapter cable.
You will find more detailed information about IO-Link at www.ifm.com/uk/io-link.
8.2 Device-specific information
You will find the IODDs necessary for the configuration of the IO-Link unit and
detailed information about sensor values, diagnostic information and parameters
in the overview table at www.ifm.com/uk/io-link.
8.3 Parameter setting tools
You will find all necessary information about the required IO-Link hardware and
software (e.g. ifm LINERECORDER SENSOR ZGS210) at www.ifm.com/uk/io-link.
