8.4.4 Configure IO-Link ports
11810
The IO-Link ports are configured via the controller tags. The user can configure each IO-Link port
separately.
To configure the IO-Link ports:
Requirements:
> AL1122 is correctly integrated in the EtherNet/IP project (→ Integrate the AL1122 into the EtherNet/IP network
(→ p. 43)).
1 Open controller tags
► In the Controller Organizer: Double click on [Controller Name_of_Project] > [Controller Tags]
> [Controller Tags] window appears.
► In the tree view: Click on [AL1122:C].
> Controller tags for the configuration of the device appear.
2 Configure IO-Link ports
► Configure the following tags for each IO-Link port at will:
