IO-Link Master Description
The module is a PROFINET or Modbus/TCP Fieldbus module with 8 Class A IO-Link master ports
according to IO-Link standard V1.1. The Fieldbus module serves as an interface between the
PROFINET controller or Modbus TCP controller Fieldbus system and IO-Link devices at the field level.
The integrated web server and IODD interpreter enabling complete configuration of the Fieldbus
module and attached IO-Link devices without the need for special software tools. Information
regarding the status of the module is also displayed and network parameters such as the IP address
and subnet mask can be configured. The module is capable of storing all configurations enabling
stand-alone usage without a higher-level PLC. MutliLink simultaneously provides data access via
different communication protocols like PROFINET, Modbus/TCP, MQTT, and OPC UA to multiple
controllers. An L-coded M12 connector plug used for supplying power enables a current rating of up
to 2 x 16 A. The inputs and outputs are equipped with A-coded M12 connector plugs. Connection to
the Fieldbus is achieved using a D-coded M12 connector plug. Status information for each channel is
displayed via LEDs as a diagnostic function
