Variant Configuration
Description
The device variant can be changed either via ISDU with this parameter or by using the IO-Link compatibility mode. If this parameter is written, the device variant is not changed immediately but instead after the device is restarted. If the device variant is changed via the IO-Link compatibility mode, the change in this parameter is visible immediately.
This parameter is not changed by a reset.
Hint
After a variant changeover, an inconsistent configuration may occur because there is no automatic changeover of parameters.
It is therefore recommended that the setup be done in the following order:
Variant setting
Activate the variant with a device restart.
Check parameters and set valid parameters if necessary or use Data Storage (see Data Storage).
