epp6228-0022

Product Overview

The EPP6228 IO-Link module enables connection of up to eight IO-Link devices. These can be IO-Link box modules, actuators, sensors or combinations of both. Point-to-point connection between the module and the connected device. The EtherCAT P Box is parameterized via the EtherCAT master. IO-Link is designed as an intelligent link between the fieldbus level and the sensor, wherein parameterization information can be exchanged bidirectionally via the IO-Link connection. The parameterization of the IO-Link devices with service data can take place from TwinCAT via ADS or, very conveniently, via the integrated IO-Link configuration tool. In addition to the IO-Link channels, the EPP6228 features eight digital inputs on pin 2 of the respective M12 socket. In the standard setting, the four IO-Link channels of the EPP6228-0022 operate as a 8-channel input module, 24 V DC, which if necessary communicates with connected IO-Link devices, parameterizes them and, if required, changes their operation mode. Each IO-Link port can also optionally be used just as an input or output.
