technologies. Furthermore, WAGO IO-Link Configurator can run on any other tools that
are connected via TCI.
The two main functions of TCI are the following:
Invocation Interface
The invocation interface serves to launch WAGO IO-Link Configurator from the engineer-
ing system and provide it with the information necessary for operation of the connected
field products.
Communication Server
WAGO IO-Link Configurator has various options for communication with the supported
IO-Link masters and the IO-Link devices connected to them. The most convenient situa-
tion is when the engineering system provides a communication channel and WAGO IO-
Link Configurator does not need to worry about the communication channel. This commu-
nication channel is called a communication server. STEP 7 supports PROFIBUS and
PROFINET. PROFIBUS requires so-called dataset routing. Not all products support this.
Therefore, WAGO IO-Link Configurator also supports its own communication options, in-
dependent of the communication server.

5.5.2.6 TCI Conformance Classes

WAGO IO-Link Configurator supports all TCI conformance classes according to the oper-
ating mode and communication system. As a general rule, TCI conformance class 3 is
used for PROFIBUS and TCI conformance class 2 for PROFINET.
• TCI Conformance Class 1
Calling only via the invocation interface; no communication with the field product
• TCI Conformance Class 2
Calling via the invocation interface and communication via its own communication
channels
• TCI Conformance Class 3
Calling via the invocation interface and communication via the communication server

5.5.2.7 Integration of IO-Link Masters and IO-Link Devices

IO-Link masters are integrated into WAGO IO-Link Configurator by including an IOLM
(IO-Link Master) device description file. The IO-Link devices are fully integrated into the
configurator via the IODDs (IO Device Descriptions)

5.5.3 WAGO Webserver I/O Field

The WAGO I/O Field module has an integrated Webserver. It can be accessed with a
standard Web browser in order to use the following functions:
• Display port information for ports X01, X02 etc.
• Display and modify product settings
• User setup and management, as well as user login and logout
• Reset product to factory settings and restart firmware
• Simulating inputs; forcing outputs
Examples of port information include:
• Display current measured values for the ports: temperature, voltage, current and state
on pins 1, 2 and 4
