Process values from IO-Link sensors

March 2019 Fieldbus & Industrial Networking

The E30443 IO-Link master display is easily connected to one port of an ifm IO-Link master with four or eight ports. The display detects sensors that are connected to the same master and automatically indicates the main process value of the first four ports. Each sensor and its process values can also be visualised individually by pushing a button. Furthermore, a favourite view with the requested process values can be created. In addition, the user can easily configure the display and the IP address of the master.

The device is an excellent choice for displaying process values for sensors that do not have a display, which are difficult to access, or are not visible after installation caused by the application.

This means that ideal measuring points can be used irrespective of the visualisation.
