An IO-Link Device Description (IODD) file is a set of multiple files including a
file in XML format, which describes all parameters associated with the device.
The IODD set also includes graphic image files of the device and vendor logo.
Before you proceed with this task, take note that:
• Only IODD files based on IO-Link specification v1.0.1 or v1.1 can be
registered.

installed to be able to register an IODD file.
To register an IODD file:
