IO-Link Master Module
The PointMax 4-channel IO-Link master module provides four IO-Link channels and four
configurable standard digital I/O channels. The IO-Link channels can be used as standard
digital I/O. The IO-Link master module can be configured to fit any IO-Link and/or
discrete application.
The module has four IO-Link Class A ports with the following assignment:
Port Number | Port 0 | Port 1 | Port 2 | Port 3 | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
IO-Link Port Class | A | A | A | A | ||||
Channel Number | Channel 0 | Channel 1 | Channel 2 | Channel 3 | Channel 4 | Channel 5 | Channel 6 | Channel 7 |
Channel Type | C/Q | I/Q | C/Q | I/Q | C/Q | I/Q | C/Q | I/Q |
Each IO-Link port supports two independent channels that are C/Q channel and I/Q
channel:
- Channels 0, 2, 4, and 6 are C/Q channels. You can configure these channels as IO-Link channel, digital input, and digital output.
- Channels 1, 3, 5, and 7 are I/Q channels. You can configure these channels as digital input and digital output.
IMPORTANT:
Only C/Q channels can be configured as IO-Link channels.
IO-Link master module supports removal and insertion under power (RIUP). You must remove
the RTB first and then the IO-Link master module.
