Chapter 1
Introduction
The ArmorBlock 5000 8-channel IO-Link master module provides 16 channels that can be
configured for IO-Link, digital input, and digital output. The module supports up to 8 channels
for IO-Link master communication with IO-Link compatible devices. In standard digital I/O
mode, the module supports up to 12 channels of digital inputs and up to 16 channels of digital
outputs. Standard digital input channels support IEC 61131-2 type 3 input. Channels can also be
disabled if not in use.
The module provides isolated power for Class B IO-Link devices and provides diagnostics for
module and individual channels. The module also supports CIP Sync™ with time stamps for
input events and faults.
Highly Integrated IO-Link Highly integrated IO-Link is the integration of IO-Link technology into the Studio 5000® design
environment. All IO-Link devices become CIP™ nodes and are configured in the same way as
other CIP devices. For example, all registered IO-Link devices have their unique identity,
Add-on Profiles (AOP), tags, and appear in the I/O configuration tree under the IO-Link bus.
IO-Link technology is a worldwide open-standard protocol that integrates sensors and other
field devices into our Connected Enterprise® by connecting the IO-Link enabled device to an
IO-Link master module. You can use it to deliver data from smart devices directly into a
control system. The flexibility of IO-Link capable devices allows machines to operate more
effectively by providing diagnostics and data including detailed machine health status to
improve uptime and increase productivity.
The benefits of IO-Link technology include:
• A worldwide open-standard peer-to-peer serial communication protocol according to
IEC 61131-9.
• Forward/backward compatibility with standard sensors.
• Uses the same cables as standard sensors.
• Allows exchange of I/O, diagnostic, and configuration data simultaneously.
The benefits of integration into the Studio 5000 Logix Designer® application include:
• Each IO-Link device has its own independent identity and connection. You can inhibit
an individual device connection.
• Add and view IO-Link devices in the I/O configuration tree.
• Each IO-Link device has an AOP and can be configured like a CIP device.
• Supports Automatic Device Configuration (ADC) and if applicable, the Data Storage
feature.
• Named Configuration/Input/Output tags are created for each IO-Link device.
• Configure IO-Link devices in both offline and online mode.
• Import/Export configuration for individual IO-Link devices.
• Back up configuration data for IO-Link devices into a project file in both ADC and non-
ADC (Data Storage) modes.
• Provides recovery of configuration data for IO-Link devices in both ADC and non-ADC
(Data Storage) modes by restoring the device configuration that is saved in a project
file to the devices.

• Ease of commissioning by cloning the configuration data to another system with the
same physical setup.
