Add a Preconfigured Device

You can add a preconfigured IO-Link device to your system and use this device configuration
across other devices in the system.
We recommend attaching your preconfigured IO-Link device to a new IO-Link master module,
or a used IO-Link master module that is restored to the factory default state, to help ensure
that the previous device configuration in the IO-Link master module does not overwrite the
configuration in the device. Restoring the module to the factory default state clears all device
configuration that is stored on all ports from the module.
If you use an IO-Link master module that is new or has been reset to the factory default state,
follow these steps add your preconfigured device.
1. Go online with your project.

3. Follow the steps as described in

Check, select "Use Device Values", and select Apply.
