Extension by IO-Link master¶

You can expand the CMTK with additional IO-Link connections by connecting an Ethernet/IP-based IO-Link master.

Supported IO-Link masters¶

The following IO-Link masters are supported:

• BNI006A (BNI EIP-508-105-Z015)
• BNI009T (BNI EIP-507-005-Z040)
• BNI00H7 (BNI EIP-508-105-Z067)
• BNI00HM (BNI EIP-508-005-Z015-013)

Integrate IO-Link master¶

1. Connect the IO-Link master directly to the CMTK via LAN port 1 or LAN port 2 and ensure that the IO-Link master is accessible to the CMTK within the LAN.

   Note

   IO-Link masters often have a static IP preset at the factory. For connection to LAN port 1 or LAN port 2, this must be adapted, e.g. to Manual within the same IP range.

2. Navigate to the Connected Devices menu and click * Add Master*.

   

   A search is made for reachable IO-Link masters.

   Note

   Please make sure that the network ports within your network are enabled.

   

3. Click CONNECT to connect the CMTK to the IO-Link master.The IO-Link master appears under the CMTK.

You can make all other settings as usual for the sensors connected to the IO-Link master.
