The software features an intuitively operable user interface, and configuration is performed independently of the network. The engineering tool used, and the type of field bus implemented, also play a role. Upload of the IO-Link configuration files is performed directly by the field bus coupler on to the IO-Link Master and in turn, from there on to IO-Link devices. The configuration tool makes it possible to archive, distribute and modify project files locally. The configuration software provides an interface to the cross-manufacturer central IO-Link database and the “IODDfinder”. In such a way, users discover a convenient overview of available IO-Link devices and their description files, the IODDs. The joint data source for IODDs provides high quality and consistency beyond that. The u-remote IO-Link configurator is available as a free download on the company’s homepage. For all series machines which use a recurring IO-Link configuration, the single project engineering configuration file can be stored locally and be redistributed from there to other plants. This can be accessed and adapted later where necessary.
