IO-Link Process Data Out (Master to Device)

IO-Link® is a point-to-point communication link between a master device and a sensor and/or light. It can be used to automatically parameterize sensors or lights and to transmit process data. For the latest IO-LINK protocol and specifications, please visit www.io-link.com.
For the latest IODD files, please refer to the Banner Engineering Corp website at: www.bannerengineering.com.

Segment Mode
Configure the light to have up to 10 segments which scale in size automatically with the length of the light or select Manual Segment Configuration which allows each segment to have a custom LED width and LED offset from the beginning of each segment to the beginning of the light.
Use process data to set each segment to off, solid on, flash, or animation mode. Use parameter data to change segment number and configuration, color, intensity, flash speed, direction, background, and select animation type.

Animation Description
Off Segment is off
Steady Color 1 is solid on at defined intensity
Flash Color 1 flashes at defined speed, color intensity, and pattern (normal,

strobe, three pulse, SOS, or random)
Two Color Flash| Color 1 and Color 2 flash alternately at defined speed, color intensities, and pattern (normal, strobe, three pulse, SOS, or random)
Two Color Shift| Color 1 and Color 2 flash alternately on adjacent LEDs at defined speed and color intensities
Ends Steady| Color 1 is solid on in the center of the segment as defined by Percent Width of Color 1 at defined color intensity while Color 2 is solid on for half of the remaining percentage on each end of the segment at defined color intensity
Ends Flash| Color 1 is solid on in the center of the segment as defined by Percent Width of Color 1 at defined color intensity while Color 2 flashes on for half of the remaining percentage on each end of the segment at defined speed, color intensity, and pattern (normal, strobe, three pulse, SOS, or random)
Scroll| Color 1 fills the segment as defined by Percent Width of Color 1 and moves in one direction up or down against the background of Color 2 at the defined speed, color intensities, style, and direction

Two Color Sweep| Color 1 and Color 2 define the end values of a line across the color gamut. The segment continuously displays a color by moving along the line at the defined speed and color intensities
Spectrum| The segment scrolls through the 13 predefined colors with a different color on each LED at the defined speed, Color 1 intensity, and direction

Level Mode
Use process data to set the level value. Use parameter data to set range, thresholds, colors, intensities, flash speeds, background, and animation types.

General Settings Description
Level Mode Value Value of the level of the light (between 0 to 65,535)
Full Scale Value Set the upper limit of the Level Mode Value (between 0 to

65,535)
Background Color and Intensity| A defined color and intensity is displayed on LEDs that are not active
Dominance| Dominant: The entire light displays the active threshold color Non- Dominant: LEDs displays their defined threshold colors
Sub-Segment Style| If Level Mode Value is a partial percentage of an LED, select if segment will be on steady or analog dimmed to the partial percentage
Filtering| Smooths the input signal by varying the sample size

None: There is no filtering

Low: The sample size is short and changes to the input signal are more noticeable High: The sample size is long and changes to the input signal are less noticeable

Hysteresis| Determines the signal value change needed to transition between thresholds and to prevent chatter

None: The value follows the input signal

High: A large value change is needed to transition between thresholds

Base and Threshold 1-4 Settings Description
Threshold Type: Base A defined animation state is displayed on LEDs that are

not defined within a threshold
Threshold Type: 1-4| Level Mode Values that conform to Threshold Comparison Type ≤ or ≥ and the Threshold Value Percent are displayed on LEDs as defined by the threshold color, intensity, flash speeds, and run mode animation types

Dim and Blend Mode
Dim and blend mode uses the light to finely adjust the intensity of one color, or blend between two or three colors. Use process data to set the dim and blend mode value. Use parameter data to set number of colors, range, colors, and intensities.

General Settings Description
Dim and Blend Mode Value Value of the intensity of the light in 1 Color mode

or value of the blend between colors in 2 and 3 Color mode (between 0 to 65,535)

3: Color 1 and Color 2 define the beginning and end value of one line across the color gamut. Color 2 and Color 3 define the beginning and end value of a second line across the color gamut. The light displays a blended color and moves along the two lines as defined by the Dim and Blend Mode Value and color intensities

Filtering| Smooths the input signal by varying the sample size

None: There is no filtering

Low: The sample size is short and changes to the input signal are more noticeable High: The sample size is long and changes to the input signal are less noticeable

Gauge Mode
Gauge mode uses the light to display a colored band of LEDs in a position proportional to the gauge mode value. Use process data to set the gauge mode value. Use parameter data to set range, thresholds, colors, intensities, flash speeds, background, and animation types.

General Settings Description
Gauge Mode Value Value of the band position within the light (between 0 to

65,535)
Full Scale Value| Set the upper limit of the Gauge Mode Value (between 0 to 65,535)
Filtering| Smooths the input signal by varying the sample size None: There is no filtering Low: The sample size is short and changes to the input signal are more noticeable High: The sample size is long and changes to the input signal are less noticeable
Hysteresis| Determines the signal value change needed to transition between thresholds and to prevent chatter None: The value follows the input signal High: A large value change is needed to transition between thresholds
