6.3 Procedure for commissioning
Updating the software
▶ Update the firmware of the fieldbus coupler and that of
the UR20-4COM-IO-LINK modules to the latest version.
ConguringtheIO-Linkmaster
▶ Install the current device description files.
▶ Configure the control unit and the network as usual.
▶ Add the required fieldbus coupler and the UR20-4COM-
IO-LINK module to your configuration.
▶ Adjust the process data length of the UR20-4COM-IO-
LINK module and the fieldbus coupler to your
IO-Link device configuration.
The procedure for adjusting the process data length depends
on which eldbus coupler and which engineering tool you
are using.
For commissioning examples, see sections 6.4 to 6.8.
Parameterising the IO-Link port
The IO-Link ports are parameterised via the parameters of
the IO-Link master. A eld device is integrated using the suit-
able parameterisation of the associated IO-Link port. An over-
view of all parameters can be found in section 4.6.
▶ For each IO-Link port, set the “Operating mode” parame-
ter such that the setting corresponds with the connected
device.
▶ Change the other parameters as required.
ConguringIO-Linkdevicesonline
You can use the u-remote IO-Link congurator to congure
the IO-Link system during ongoing operation.
▶ Start the u-remote IO-Link congurator.
▶ Establish a connection between the computer and the
u-remote station.
▶ Activate the IO-Link ports to which IO-Link devices are
connected.
▶ Assign the correct IODDs to these IO-Link ports.
▶ Parameterise the IO-Link devices.
▶ Write the edited parameters to the IO-Link devices.
You can nd further information on installation and opera-
tion of the u-remote IO-Link congurator in Chapter 7.
LoadingtheIO-Linkdevicecongurationtotheu-remote
station
You can load an exported IO-Link device configuration to the
u-remote station via the u-remote web server. This procedure
is suitable when you want to use the same configuration a
number of times.
▶ Always observe the complete documentation
in the u-remote web server manual
(document no. 2112220000).
If you access a eldbus coupler via the u-remote
IO-Link Congurator and the u-remote web server
simultaneously, this may result in access con-
icts.
▶ Start the u-remote web server.
▶ Open the component view of the IO-Link module by click-
ing on the IO-Link module in the station overview.
▶ In the component view, click Load device configura-
tion.
Loading the IO-Link device configuration to the u-remote station
▶ Select the required configuration file (.json) and click
Open.
A dialogue box with details for the IO-Link device congura-
tion is opened.
▶ Check whether the details for the IO-Link device configu-
ration correspond with the actual configuration.
▶ Click Upload.
The IO-Link device conguration is written to the module.
You can nd further information on installation and opera-
tion of the u-remote IO-Link congurator in Chapter 7.
You will receive an error message if the
IO-Link device conguration does not match the
connected IO-Link devices.
