The product is designed according to state-of-the-art technology. Residual hazards, however, still exist. Observe the following safety instructions and warnings in order to prevent danger to persons and property. Turck accepts no liability for damage caused by failure to observe these safety instructions.

Intended use

The analog IO-Link converter ILC-AIU-M12-IOL8X2 converts analog output signals from a connected sensor into an IO-Link signal.

The device must only be used as described in these instructions. Any other use is not in accordance with the intended use. Turck accepts no liability for any resulting damage.

Obvious misuse

The devices are not safety components and must not be used for personal or property protection.

General safety notes

The device must only be fitted, installed, operated, parameterized and maintained by trained and qualified personnel.
Only use the device in compliance with the applicable national and international regulations, standards and laws.
The device meets the EMC requirements for the industrial areas. When used in residential areas, take measures to prevent radio frequency interference.

Product description

The device is equipped with a 4-pin M12 male connector for connecting to an IO-Link master and a 5-pin M12 female connector for connecting to a sensor with analog output. The M12 female connector is designed with a 0.3-m connection cable. The analog IO-Link converter is contained in a metal housing.

The device has two switching outputs or one switching output and one IO-Link output.

Device overview

$TURCK-ILC-AIU-M12-IOL8X2-Inline - Analog-to-IO-Link-Converter-FIG $1$$

Indication elements

The device has a 2-color status LED to indicate IO-Link communication.

Properties and features

Analog: M12 female connector, A-coded
IO-Link: M12 male connector, A-coded
Adjustable output configuration: PNP/NPN/auto-detection
Output signal detection: Current/voltage/auto-detection
Resolution 16 bit
Drift 45 ppm
Sampling/conversion rate ≤ 200 Hz
Protection class IP67

Functional principle

The connected sensor transmits an analog output signal to the IO-Link converter. The IO-Link converter forwards a digital IO-Link signal to the IO- Link master. Communication between the IO-Link converter and the IO-Link master is bidirectional.

$TURCK-ILC-AIU-M12-IOL8X2-Inline - Analog-to-IO-Link-Converter-FIG $2$$

Functions and operating modes

The device converts analog output signals from a connected sensor into an IO- Link signal. If the auto-detect function is activated for the switching output, the device automatically detects and activates the relevant type of output (PNP/NPN). The auto-detect function is activated by default. The device supports Smart Sensor Profile 4.1.2.

If the auto-detect function is activated for the analog signal, the device automatically detects the analog output signal (current/voltage) from the sensor. The auto-detect function is activated by default. The following analog output signals can be converted into an IO-Link signal by the device:

0…20 mA
0…10 V

IO-Link mode

The devices can be operated in IO-Link mode or in SIO mode. In order to operate in IO-Link mode, the devices must be connected to an IO-Link master. Bidirectional IO-Link communication takes place when operating with the analog IO-Link converter.

Installing

The device can be installed in any position.

Install the device between the IO-Link master and the sensor.
Protect the device connection against mechanical damage.
Position the device so that the LED is visible during operation.

Connection

The device has an M12 female connector with a connection cable for connecting analog sensors. The device has an M12 male connector for connecting to the IO- Link master. The device is suitable for all IO-Link masters that support the IO-Link standard 1.0 or higher.

Commissioning

The device is ready for operation 100 ms after the power supply is connected and switched on.

Initiating IO-Link mode

Set a cycle time of at least 1.3 ms (COM 3) on the IO-Link master. The device is operational.

Initiating SIO mode

Connect the device to a standard I/O port or an analog port.

The device is operational after a delay of 500 ms.

The delay is necessary in SIO mode for the operation of preactivated sensors so that the sensor can exclude being connected to an IO-Link master. The operation delay has no effect on any potential IO-Link communication.

Operation

The device can be operated in either SIO mode or IO-Link mode.

Setting via IO-Link

The device can be parameterized within the technical specifications (see data sheet) via the IOLink communication interface – both offline, e.g. with the configuration tool as well as also online via the controller. An overview of the different functions and properties that can be set and used for IO-Link or SIO mode can be found in the chapter “Setting and Parameterization” and via the IODDfinder. Detailed instructions on the parameterization of devices via the IO-Link interface are provided in the IO-Link commissioning manual. All parameters can be changed in IO-Link mode via the controller, both during commissioning and during operation. In SIO mode, the device operates in accordance with the most recent setting configured in IO-Link mode.

Setting in SIO mode

In SIO mode, various sensor functions and adjustable properties can be used. The set functions can be analyzed using the switching signals or analog values for the respective output.

Configuring the device prior to initial commissioning

Configure the sensor functions and properties via an IO-Link master or an IO-Link USB adaptor using a configuration tool. The selected settings are saved and will be operational following the installation of the device in the plant.

Configuring the device following the initial commissioning

Disconnect the device from the control system.
Configure the sensor functions and properties via an IO-Link master or an IO-Link USB adaptor using a configuration tool. a The selected settings are saved and will be operational following reinstallation in the plant.

Troubleshooting

If the device does not function as expected, first check whether ambient interference is present. If there is no ambient interference present, check the connections of the device for faults. If there are no faults, there is a device malfunction. In this case, decommission the device and replace it with a new device of the same type.

Maintenance

Ensure regularly that the plug connections and cables are in good condition. The devices are maintenance-free, clean dry if required.

Repair

The device is not intended for repair by the user. The device must be decommissioned if it is faulty. Observe our return acceptance conditions when returning the device to Turck.

Returning devices

If a device has to be returned, bear in mind that only devices with a decontamination declaration will be accepted. This is available for download at
https://www.turck.de/en/return-service-6079.php and must be completely filled in, and affixed securely and weather-proof to the outside of the packaging.

Disposal

The devices must be disposed of properly and do not belong in the domestic waste.
