FUNCTIONS
This chapter describes the details of the functions available in the IO-Link module, and the setting procedures for those
functions.
For details on remote I/O signals and remote registers, refer to the following.

IO-Link Master Functions
IO-Link cyclic transmission function
This function communicates process data periodically with the IO-Link device connected to each channel.
Use this function to retrieve information from and control the IO-Link device in real time. A maximum of 32 bytes process data
can be communicated. The data size and structure vary depending on the connected IO-Link module.
Because the default setting of each channel is SIO mode input, enable the IO-Link mode corresponding to the remote output
signal (RY) channel in initial processing to perform IO-Link communication.
To apply the IO-Link mode enabled during operation, turn on Operation condition setting request flag (RWw0.b9).
Input/output process data area
The IO-Link module reads and writes process data from/to the IO-Link device connected to each channel via the remote
register (RWr/RWw).
Setting procedure
1.
Open the "CC IE Field Configuration" window.
For the master/local module RJ71GF11-T2
[Navigation window] [Parameter] [Module Information] [RJ71GF11-T2] [Module Parameter] [Basic Settings]
[Network Configuration Settings]
2.
Open the "Parameter Processing of Slave Station" window.
From the list of stations, select an IO-Link module [CC IE Field Configuration] [Online] [Parameter Processing of
Slave Station].
3.
Set "Method selection" to "Parameter Write".
4.
For each channel of "Pin configuration setting", set "Write Value" as follows.
• CQ: "IOL"
• Q: "INPUT" or "OUTPUT"
