Product catalog summary

1. Physical Layer Specifications

The IO-Link device operates within the master port's maximum output current limits. It supports SIO mode with a minimum cycle time of 2.3 ms and communicates at COM2 baud rate (38.4 kbit/s) according to IO-Link specification version 1.1.0. The process data input length is fixed at 2 bytes. The device uses IODD version V1.19790.

2. Process Data Structure

Process data consists of 2 bytes structured with defined bit offsets representing unsigned integers and boolean values. This data facilitates real-time communication between the device and the master controller.

3. Service Data and ISDU Management

Certain Indexed Service Data Units (ISDUs) such as profile characteristics, setpoints, Q configurations, device and function names, counter and debounce versions, and quality indicators are volatile and not saved via Data-Storage. This ensures dynamic parameters are managed appropriately without persistent storage.

4. IO-Link Specific Parameters

  • Direct Parameters: Two 16-byte records with read/write access.
  • Device Access Locks: 2-byte record controlling write access to parameters, data storage, local parameterization, and user interface.
  • Identification Strings: Vendor name (7 bytes), product name (18 bytes), product ID (13 bytes), product text (45 bytes), serial number (8 bytes), hardware version (4 bytes), firmware version (19 bytes) are read-only; application-specific tag (32 bytes) is read/write.
  • Device Status: 8-bit unsigned integer indicating device condition with codes from 0 (OK) to 4 (Failure), with 5-255 reserved.
  • Process Data Input: 2 bytes, read-only.

5. SICK Device Specific Parameters

  • Profile characteristic arrays and process data input/output descriptors.
  • Setpoints with configurable upper and lower thresholds.
  • Q1 and Q2 configurations include logic bits, mode bits, and hysteresis with vendor-specific defaults.
  • Pin 2 supports multiple modes: deactivated, external input, detection output, function reserve alarm output, and switching signal.
  • Function reserve and alarm threshold parameters with defined ranges.
  • Device and function name strings (32 bytes, read/write).
  • System state and notification handling with options to enable/disable events and process data invalid flags.
  • Counter parameters: version, mode (up/down), preset mode, preset value, and comparator values with defined ranges.
  • Debounce parameters: version, debounce times (up to 30000 ms), and quality indicators (0-100%).
  • SLTI version and logic modes (direct, window, hysteresis) for logic 1 and 2.

6. Communication and Access Details

Access rights are clearly defined as read-only (ro), write-only (wo), or read/write (rw). Bit-level access locks secure parameter writing, data storage, local parameterization, and user interface to ensure controlled device configuration.

7. Manufacturer and Support Information
