4.5.6 Output functions – Analog output
The analog output of the PS…LI2UPN8 sensors can be set as either a current or voltage output.
The measuring range is freely definable.
Current output
In the defined measuring range between ASP (analog start point) and AEP (analog end point),
the output signal is between 4 and 20 mA or between 0 and 20mA. The minimum distance
between the start and end point is 10 % of the set measuring range.

Voltage output
In the defined measuring range between ASP (analog start point) and AEP (analog end point),
the output signal is between 0 and 10 V, between 0 and 5 V, or between 1 and 6 V.

4.5.7 IO-Link mode
The devices must be connected to an IO-Link master for operation in IO-Link mode. If the port is
configured in IOL mode, bidirectional IO-Link communication is provided between the IO-Link
master and the device. For this the device is integrated in the controller level via an IO-Link
master. The communication parameters are exchanged first of all; the cyclic data exchange of
the process data (process data objects) then starts.
