IO-Link is a point-to-point communications standard for automation technology. IO-Link permits integrated communication at all levels, from sensors and actuators through superordinated controllers (PLCs) and beyond to the control level. An intelligent field device can transmit data about its status, energy consumption, and the process via this interface. At the same time, parameters of the controller may be modified and then transferred to the product.
The intelligent field device is both supplied with power and integrated into the system via the IO-Link connection. The device is connected to the so-called IO-Link master via the IO-Link cable and from there is connected to the controller. This substantially reduces the cost of cabling in the system. Parameterization of the devices is saved in the superordinate automation system. If a field device is exchanged, the previous parameters can be transferred to it quickly via IO-Link.
The IO-Link master and the field device are connected by an unshielded three-core cable that is at most 20 meters long.
IO-Link and Industrial Ethernet permit integrated communication at all levels, from sensors and actuators through superordinated controllers (PLCs) and beyond to the control level.
IO-Link is a point-to-point communication standard, while Ethernet is based on a bus system. Using Ethernet, multiple participants can communicate directly with each other. Unlike IO-Link, Ethernet does not need an additional IO-Link master for this purpose.
Schmalz offers function modules for its intelligent devices with which the devices can be integrated into different control systems quickly and without requiring any major manual adaptations. Function modules for IO-Link devices simplify communications with the PLC by providing device and process parameters.
You can find corresponding function modules directly on the page of the product in the online shop. Call up the item in question via its part number or designation. On the "Documentation" tab you'll find the function modules in addition to the operating instructions.
