Introduction The IO221 or the IO221/CO are devices for connecting a strain gauge full bridge sensor, the converted measurement result of which is transmitted cyclically via the process data via IO Link. The "CO" expansion option also has three HTL PNP control inputs and two PNP switching outputs. These switching outputs transmit when switching points are exceeded or fallen below, as well as movements outside of a range.
Electrical Connections The terminal screws should be tightened with a slotted screwdriver (blade width 2mm). DC Power Supply The unit accepts DC supply from 18 to 30 V at the terminals X1 pin 7 (+) und 8 (-). The power consumption depends on the level of the supply voltage with approx.
DMS Input Strain gauge full bridge supply With the terminals SUP+, SUP- resp. X3 Pin 5 (+) and Pin 4 (-) the DMS sensor can be supplied by a programmable voltage of 3V - 10VDC with max. 50mA. The supply voltage can be read back in mV via Index „40“, Subindex „19“...
Control Inputs (only with option „CO“) Three control inputs with HTL PNP characteristics are available on terminal X1, pins 1, 2 and 3. The current state of the control inputs is cyclically exchanged with the process data and can therefore be used for a wide variety of functions.
Control Outputs (only with option „CO“) Two control outputs are available on terminal X1, pins 5 and 6. Depending on the configuration ("DIGITAL OUTPUT MENU"), they can transmit different statuses. The outputs Ctrl. Out 1 and 2 are designed as high side drivers. The status of the outputs is transmitted cyclically with the IO-Link process data.
IO-Link Interface This chapter contains important notes and information regarding IO-Link communication data. In addition to general information on the IO-Link connection, the parameter data of the device, the exchanged process data and the implemented system commands, error codes and events are discussed.

System Kommandos A system command is a write-only parameter that causes an action in the device. To invoke the desired action, the corresponding value must be written to index 2, subindex 0. If the desired command is a static command (s), this command remains active until the corresponding value is written again to index 2, subindex 0.

Parameter / Overview - Menu Structure The device is parameterized via the IO-Link interface using a suitable engineering tool, which is usually provided by the IO-Link master manufacturers. This section shows the overview of the individual menus and their parameters. The menu name is written in bold, the associated parameters are arranged directly under the menu name.
This parameter is used to set the bridge resistance (input resistance) of the sensor. This value can be monitored by the IO221. For example, if 350 ohms is set, an error will be triggered at R < 175 ohms and R > 700 ohms. (/2 or *2) („Index 40“, „Subindex 17“)

General Menu The general parameters for this signal converter are described in this menu. FILTER This parameter provides a better filtering of the DMS sensor supply readback. The filter time is doubled with each increase in value. .The longer the filter time, the more accurate the read value.
Adjustment Menu In this menu, the specific parameters for the fine adjustments of the signal converter are described. TCI BRIDGE OFFSET ( fine adjustment of the offset temperature difference) The temperature difference can be read out via Index "662", Subindex "0". The TCI OFFSET INVERSION parameter can be used to determine whether the value is added or subtracted.

SIMULATION If the parameter TEMP. SIMULATION = 0 is set, the internal temperature sensor is used. If the parameter is set to "1", instead of the internal temperature sensor, the parameter TEMP.
Commissioning Basic setting oft he strain gauge sensor For connection and wiring, see connection example for strain gauge sensor. After connection, the parameters "Sensor Supply", "Sensor Gain", "Sensor OSR", "Sensor Resistor" and "Filter" can be set. The "Sensor Supply" parameter corresponds to the supply voltage of the strain gauge sensor, which can be found in the sensor's operating instructions.
Easiest setting The simplest setting for the digital outputs or for further processing with a higher-level controller is to use the directly converted bridge voltage ("DIRECT BRIDGE RESULT"). (Corresponds to Index “40", Subindex "21" or byte 0..3 of the cyclic process data). To do this, the parameters "Output Source 1" or "Output Source 2"...
Setting without zeroing: Zeroing is not necessary if the input variable is not required as a reference for the forces, i.e. the acting forces cannot be read directly from the input variable. (e.g. value 531 -> 400g) Then the DMS sensor is loaded with a reference weight, a new value is displayed that corresponds to the reference weight.
Continuation “Conversion to sensor units”: Attention: Here a multiplication with a factor of 4 takes place, it would be better to increase the gain to 4 if you want an accuracy of 1g. The "Sensor Correction" parameter can be used to adjust the conversion to a small degree.
Calibration of the MEA readback Both analog readbacks of the bridge voltage can be calibrated. To do this, an external multimeter must be connected and then compared in relation to the readback (via Index "40", Subindex "19"). Calibration is possible via the "Bridge Supply Adjust" parameter. Adjustment is necessary to increase the accuracy of the calculated resistance value and when using the conversion to sensor units.
Example gain correction: Voltage at input: 5 mV "Temp. Comp. (TCI)" = 0 Temperature compensation of offset and gain "Temp. Simulation" = 1 simulation active "Temp. Sim. Value" = 1412 Simulation with -20° Index "665", subindex "0" -20 (temperature read back) “Sensor Gain”...
