Configuration of the IO link master

EtherCAT XML device description and configuration files
The display matches that of the CoE objects from the EtherCAT XML Device Description. We rec-
ommend downloading the latest XML file from the download area of the Beckhoff website and in-
stalling it according to installation instructions.
When adding the IO-Link master (see chapter Integrating into a TwinCAT project) in the TwinCAT System
Manager, an additional tab called "IO-Link" is created (fig. IO-Link tab). A detailed description can be found
in chapter Configuration of the IO-Link devices [} 29]
Fig. 14: "IO Link" tab
IO-Link Extension
If the tab "IO-Link" is not displayed, the associated System Manager extension is missing. The Sys-
tem Manager extension is required for TwinCAT version 2.10, build 1325 to 1330.
• If your System Manager version or TwinCAT3 does not yet provide this support, it can be in-
stalled later if necessary. Please contact our Support [} 80].
