The IO-Link ports X01...X08 of the device support the following operating types:
 Digital input (DI): binary input signal on pin 4 (C/Q) of the IO-Link port
 Digital output (DO): binary output signal on pin 4 (C/Q) of the IO-Link port
 IO-Link interface (IO-Link): IO-Link data transfer via pin 4 (C/Q) of the IO-Link port
The user can set the operating mode of each IO-Link port separately at any time.
