Chapter 3 Add the POINT I/O 4 Channel IO-Link Master Module on an EtherNet/IP Network
names being created based on information from the IODD file. The Master
Module translates and maps the information from IO-Link data types to Logix
data types and also performs big-endian to little-endian (and little-endian to
big-endian) swapping as required. Additionally, the device's configuration
parameters are stored by the controller and automatically provided to the device
and/or IO-Link Master on power loss and/or replacement.
I/O Tags
For channels that are configured for either standard digital input or standard
digital output, standard Logix tag elements are created in line with the other
POINT I/O catalogs.
Configuration Data
A Configuration tag is created for each Master Module. The Configuration Data
Type includes the following:
• Fault/Program mode setting – For channels configured as standard
digital output and IO-Link.
Valid values for channels configured as standard digital output are as
follows:
− Off – value set to 100 (default)
− On – value set to 101
− Hold – value set to 102
Valid values for channels configured as IO-Link are as follows:
− All Zeros – value set to 103 (default)
− Hold – value set to 104
− Device Decides – value set to 105. The IO-Link Master module gives
the control to the IO-Link device, and the IO-Link device would
follow what the device vendor had specified as a fault or program state
for that device.
For channels configured as disabled or standard digital input, the fault or
program mode is -1 (default).
• Digital filter settings – For channels configured as standard digital input.
The valid range is from zero to 65 milliseconds with the default setting of
zero.
Details on configuring the module can be found in Chapter 4
and Chapter 5.
Chapter Summary and
What’s Next
In this chapter, you learned how to add and configure the module using the
Studio 5000 Add-on Profile software. The next chapter describes how to
configure the module to function as an IO-Link Master module.
