Configuring with STEP 7 and the S7-PCT Port Configuration Tool
12.1.2.1
Basic procedure and prerequisites
Procedure when configuring IO-Link master and IO-Link devices
Configuration takes place in two steps with STEP 7, V5.4 SP5 or STEP 7 TIA Portal, V12.0
or higher:
1. Configure the IO-Link master in
HW Config . You will find IO-Link master on the Internet
(http://www.siemens.com/industrymall
) under "Automation" > "Industrial communication"
> "IO-Link" > "Master".
2. With the Port Configuraton Tool S7-PCT , you configure the connected IO-Link devices.
Note
An application example facilitates connection of IO
-Link
devices using a block library, and
demonstrates the us
e of the block library using specific examples. You will find the
application example on the Internet
(

Requirements
● STEP 7 V5.4 SP5 or higher (you can download Service Pack 5 from the Internet
(http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/36184684
)) or STEP 7 TIA Portal
V12.0 or higher.
● The Port Configuration Tool S7-PCT is installed on the PG/PC.
You can either install
S7-PCT together with or STEP 7 or you can download it from the
Internet (http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/37936752
).
● IO-Link IODD files (IO Device Description) are installed in the S7-PCT hardware catalog .
You can download all current IODD files for the SIRIUS devices from the Internet
(
https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/#products?search=IODD&o=DefaultRankingDes
c&lc=en-WW).
IODD files for V1.0 and V1.1 are available for the combination of an IO-Link master and
an IO-Link device according to the IO-Link communication specification V1.1. You may
need IODD files according to the IO-Link communication specification V1.0 when
replacing devices in existing installations.
● The GSD files of the IO-Link masters are already installed in STEP 7 HW Config . You can
download all current GSD files for the Siemens IO-Link masters from the Internet
(http://www.siemens.com/comdec
).
● Optional: Install the IO_LINK_MASTER and IO_LINK_DEVICE function blocks for backing
up / restoring IO-Link master parameters, IO-Link device parameters, parameterization of
IO-Link devices during operation, and reading out IO-Link port functions.
You can find the function blocks on the Internet
(https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/ww/en/view/82981502
).
You can find more information about the function blocks in Chapters "Acyclic data
exchange with the IO_LINK_MASTER function block (Page 307) function block" and
"Acyclic data exchange with the IO_LINK_DEVICE function block (Page 308)".
