Direction: Slave   Master (CIB   PLC) 
Input X 0-F (port 0-7, 
pin 2/4) 
Digital input signal for the corresponding pin (high active, active if 1, 
inactive if 0) 
Diagnostics 
In-/output 0 - F 
Error on corresponding input/output pin (if 1): 
 
•  Short circuit between pin and GND when pin configured as 
output and set to active (PNP module). 
•  Short circuit between pin and UA when pin configured as output 
and set to inactive (PNP module). 
•  Short circuit between pin and UA when pin configured as output 
and set to active (NPN module). 
•  Short circuit between pin and GND when pin configured as 
output and set to inactive (NPN module) 
Error on the corresponding supply line of the port (if 1)  
e.g. overcurrent, short-circuit on Pin 1. 
1, if voltage on US is less than 18V 
1, if voltage on UA is less than 18V 
1, if voltage on UA is less than 11V or no voltage on UA 
1 if an IO-Link device is connected and IO-Link communication is 
running. 
If IO-Link Validation is active, the result of the validation is indicated 
by this bit. 
IO-Link Channel 0-7 
Event Flag 
1 if an event from a connected IO-Link device is pending. 
IO-Link Channel 0-7 Data 
Valid Flag 
1 if an IO-Link device is connected, IO-Link communication is 
running and the process data from the IO-Link device is valid. 
Direction: Master   Slave (PLC   CIB) 
Output X 0-F (port 0-7, 
pin 2/4) 
Digital output signal 00h – 0Fh 
Port direction 
0 – F Pin2/4 
When setting the port direction: 
Bit = 0: the corresponding pin functions as a digital input 
Bit = 1: the corresponding pin functions as a digital output  
Used only during initial processing or reconfiguration 
When setting the bit to 1 the red LEDs on the display come on 
When setting the bit to 1 the green LEDs on the display come on 
If set to 1, no changes can be made on the display. A key symbol is 
displayed. 
Activate IO-Link 
Channel 0-7 
If set to 1, the channel runs in IO-Link mode. Used only during initial 
processing or reconfiguration 
IO-Link Channel 0-7 
Event Clear 
If set to 1, then all Events of the IO-Link channel are cleared. If the 
bit remains at 1, all new Events are automatically cleared.  
IO-Link Channel 0-7 
Byte Swap 
If set to 1, Byte Swap is enabled. Used only during initial processing 
or reconfiguration
