Implement diagnostic bits in the process data.
Supports the IO-Link communication protocol
IO-Link is an open communication
interface technology between the sensor/
actuator and the I/O terminal that is an
international standard: IEC61131-9.
IO-Link Master
Device settings
can be set by the
master.
• Threshold value
• Operation
mode, etc.
Read the device data.
• Switch ON/OFF signal and analog value
•
Device information:
Manufacturer, Product part number, Serial number, etc.
• Normal or abnormal device status
• Cable breakage
Application Example
Configuration File (IODD File
*

)
· Manufacturer · Product part no.
· Set value
*1 IODD File:
IODD is an abbreviation of IO Device
Description. This file is necessary for setting
the device and connecting it to a master. Save
the IODD file on the PC to be used to set the
device prior to use.
For the predictive maintenance of
suction verification
The flow rate “switch ON/OFF signals” and
“analog values” are monitored to determine
the suction status. The process and
suction status can then
be compared.

General switch output
*1 In IO-Link mode, the IO-Link indicator is ON or flashing.
*2 “LoC” is displayed when the data storage lock is enabled. (Except for when the version does not match or when in SIO mode)
The display color can be set to red or green.

The diagnostic bit in the cyclic process data makes it easy to find problems with the equipment.
It is possible to find problems with the equipment in real time using the cyclic (periodic) data and to monitor such problems in detail with the noncyclic (aperiodic) data.
