SICK Flexi Loop User Manual

To remove protection against tampering, connect the terminator directly to the Flexi
Loop MS
TR accessory. Next, carry out a new teach-in operation. After this, the Flexi
Loop MSTR accessory will not check the number of nodes or the node type.
7.4 Configuration with a standard controller
DANGER
T
est the protective device after any changes!
The entire protective device must be tested for correct operation after each change of
the configuration.
This chapter describes the most functions on the safe sensor cascade that can be set
via IO-Link
. The parameter list with all data that can be read and written is available as
a separate document (SICK part number 8017450).
7.4.1 Prerequisites
Hardware
T
o be able to use the safe sensor cascade on a standard controller you will need an IO-
Link master that meets the following prerequisites:
•
IO-Link V1.1
•
Communication mode COM1 (4.8 kBaud)
•
TimeStamp function on the IO-Link master deactivated

Software
All conf
iguration notes relate to the configuration tool TwinCAT
™
from Beckhoff.
Use the IODD (IO-Link device description) or the function block from the SICK library to
integrate the Flexi Loop MSTR2 accessory into the hardware configuration of the
project.
Use an IO-Link terminal or an IO-Link master to connect the standard controller and the
Flexi Loop MSTR2 accessory (the rest of this document describes connection with an
IO-Link master only).
When replacing the Flexi Loop MSTR2 accessory, you can easily restore the configura‐
tion of a Flexi Loop line if you use the Data storage function (supported by MSTR2 firm‐
ware version V1.02 and higher).
7.4.2 Configuration of the hardware
How to configure the safe sensor cascade in the standard controller:
b
Log int
o the configuration software for the standard controller as Specialist.
b
Change to Parameter on the IO-Link port used.
b
Open the Parameter Menu branch there.
