8.1. Module conguration
Overview
There are two options for conguring the devices:
◼ Download an EDS le from the AutomationDirect.com website or the place of purchase. Then,
import the EDS les into your programming software (see Section 7.1, “Loading the EDS les” for an
example of how to do this).
Using the EDS le allows you to benet from the advantages of a precongured connection.
◼ Congure the devices using the integrated web server.
NOTE
To transfer index changes via the WebUI and acyclic ISDU writes to the DataStorage, a
ParamDownloadStore command must be sent after the index changes.
➔ The ParamDownloadStore command can be triggered by writing value 0x05 to index 0x02.
.
Once the EDS le has been imported into the Productivity software and congured, per Section 7.1, the
module conguration data can be found in Hardware Cong – EtherNet/IP Client Properties -> CONFIG
DATA tab.
In the “Value” column, change conguration parameters by typing in a new value, or selecting from a
drop-down list (see the “IO-Link Port X0 - IO-Link Function Pin 4” parameter example in Fig. 8-1).
