8 Connecting to a PC – Sensor Studio
The Sensor Studio configuration software – in combination with an IO-Link USB master – provides a graph-
ical user interface for the operation, configuration and diagnosis of sensors with IO-Link configuration inter-
face (IO-Link devices), independent of the selected process interface.
Each IO-Link device is described by a corresponding IO Device Description (IODD file). After importing the
IODD file into the configuration software, the IO-Link device connected to the IO-Link USB master can be
operated, configured and checked – conveniently and in multiple languages. An IO-Link device that is not
connected to the PC can be configured offline.
Configurations can be saved and reopened as projects for transferring back to the IO-Link device at a later
time.
NOTICE
Only use the Sensor Studio configuration software for products manufactured by Leuze elec-
tronic.
The Sensor Studio configuration software is offered in the following languages: German, Eng-
lish, French, Italian and Spanish.
The FDT frame application of the Sensor Studio supports all languages; all languages may not
be supported in the IO-Link device DTM (Device Type Manager).
The Sensor Studio configuration software is designed according to the FDT/DTM concept:
• You make the individual configuration settings for the sensor in the Device Type Manager (DTM).
• The individual DTM configurations of a project can be called up via the frame application of the Field
Device Tool (FDT).
• Communication DTM: IO-Link USB master
• Device DTM: I/O-Link Device/IODD for ODS 10
NOTICE
Configuration changes only via the control!
Ä Always perform the configuration for process mode via the control and, if applicable, the in-
terface.
In process mode, only the configuration conveyed via the control is active. The configuration
changes made via Sensor Studio are only active in process mode if they were previously
transmitted 1:1 to the control.
Procedure for the installation of the software and hardware:
Ä Install the Sensor Studio configuration software on the PC.
Ä Install the driver for the IO-Link USB master on the PC.
Ä Connect the IO-Link USB master to the PC.
Ä Connect the OSD 10 (IO-Link device) to the IO-Link USB master.
Ä Install IO-Link device DTM with IODD file for ODS 10 in the Sensor Studio FDT frame.
