23 CoE: IO-Link port configuration

The device design is based on the "Modular Device Profiles" (ETG5001) There is
a differentiation between modules and slots
A module corresponds with the configuration of an IO-Link device with fixed
process data lengths The word "module" is a synonym for an IO-Link device
A slot is an IO-Link port of the IO-Link master; the module is put into a slot
Exactly one module and, thus, only one Rx/TxPDO can be assigned to each port
of the IO-Link master Only one data object (6000
Rx/TxPDO The data object consists of individual sub-objects
The first sub-object of each object (subindex 01) always contains the size and
number of the existing sub-objects Each object can have a maximum size of 32
sub-indexes and, hence, 32 bytes This corresponds with the maximum IO-Link
process data length
If the exact IO-Link process data length of the connected device is not available in the device
description file, then select the next largest constellation
23.1 Configuration of the operating mode
The ESI file [ifm_AL1030_Modulesxml] contains all modules supported by
the device Assigning a module to a slot is done via a configuration tool (eg
TwinCAT) If a module is added to a slot, all corresponding start-up commands
(start-up parameters) are created automatically, and necessary entries are added
to the PDO list
The following values are available as operating modes
