With IO-Link, you exchange data from the controller to the lowest field level. IO-Link is the
first, globally standardized IO technology (IEC 61131-9) to communicate with sensors and
actuators. An IO-Link system consists of an IO-Link master and one or more IO-Link de-
vices. IO-Link is a point-to-point communication.
The Axioline E IO Link master provides the interface to the superimposed control (PLC) and
controls the communication with the connected IO-Link devices.
The Axioline E product portfolio is for each of the networks listed in the figure below
IO-Link master available.
The Axioline E IO-Link devices solve the customer's request to capture or output various
digital or analog I/O signals as flexibly as possible via IO-Link. The following figure shows
the use of different Axioline E-IO-Link devices in different networks.
