Extension by IO-Link master

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

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)
  • BNI00HP (BNI XG1-505-0A5-K083)
  • BNI00HR (BNI XG1-505-A05-K084)
  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. If you want to remove the master again, you will find this setting under the 3 points of the master.

Note

You can add up to 5 masters, one with a maximum logging interval of 50ms and the others with a maximum logging interval of 500ms.
