Test Report Overview

Upon connection, the Keyence clamp-on flow sensor FD-Q10C, was immediately initialized by the Comtrol IO-Link Master and displays in the Comtrol IO-Link Diagnostics web page.

This report contains the following topics:

• IO-Link Master – IO-Link Diagnostics page

• Configuring IO-Link settings

• Setting up passwords

• Configuring the FD-Q10C laser sensor with or without an IODD file

• Restoring the FD-Q10C to factory defaults

• Using the Data Storage feature

• Using the Device Validation feature

The sensors were tested using Application Base v1.3.20 on the IO-Link Master 4-EIP (machine mountable IP67). This report does not illustrate all Comtrol IO-Link Master features, such as: EtherNet/IP and Modbus/TCP configuration, uploading the latest software, or network configuration.

The following issues occurred with this sensor:

• There is a temporary bug using the GUI to configure the flow sensor. The IODD file contains multiple drop lists with large ranges that cause long running script errors. The ISDU Interface can be used to configure the flow meter.

• Although data storage may be functional, the IODD file indicates that there are zero bytes of data that should be uploaded/downloaded. In addition, the list of indexes that are to be uploaded/downloaded is also zero.

• A device serial number is required for Identical Device Validation. The FD-Q10C does not provide a serial number. This report does not illustrate Compatible Device Validation with another FD-Q10C because a single FD-Q10C was available for testing.


IO-Link Master - IO-Link Diagnostics Page

Upon connection to the IO-Link Master, the FD-Q10C displays in the IO-Link Diagnostics page. This is not a complete screen shot of the IO-Link Diagnostics page.


Configuring IO-Link Settings

During IO-Link configuration, the Minimum Cycle Time can be left to the default value, as the IO-Link Master negotiates the required Cycle Time with each sensor.

This example shows configuring a friendly port name. The Data Storage and Device Validation features are discussed later in the report. Implement Data Storage after IO-Link device configuration.


After Configuring Port-Friendly Names

The IO-Link Diagnostics page now displays friendly Port Names.


Setting Up Passwords

The IO-Link Master ships from the factory without passwords and administrative permissions are granted. You can use the Advanced | Accounts page to set up passwords for the IO-Link Master. Admin, Operator, and User permissions are defined in the help system on the Accounts page.


FD-Q10C Configuration

You can use the Comtrol IO-Link Master to configure the IO-Link device.

• If an IODD file is loaded on the IO-Link Master, you may want to use the GUI on the top of the IO-Link Device – Port page to change parameter settings.

• If an IODD file is not loaded, you can use the ISDU Interface on the bottom of the IO-Link Device – Port page

This section discusses the following topics:

• Loading IODD files

• Verifying that the correct IODD file is loaded

• Changing IO-Link device parameters using the GUI

• Resetting to the IO-Link device to factory defaults

• Changing IO-Link device parameters using the ISDU Interface

Loading IODD Files

IODD file packages must be unzipped and the appropriate files located and rezipped or loaded individually.

1. Click Attached Devices | IODD Files.

2. Click the Browse… button.

3. Select the file set to upload and click Open.

4. Click the UPLOAD button.

5. If there are files in the IODD file set that are not required by the associated xml file, the IO-Link Master does not load the files, and displays an Ignored Files message. Click Ok to close the message.


6. The IODD Files page now displays the IODD files loaded on the IO-Link Master.

7. If you want to view the xml file, click the corresponding IODD FILENAME in the table.


8. Optionally, click the hyperlink to view the xml file in your browser.

Verifying that the Correct IODD Files Are Loaded

Use the IO-Link Device Configuration Summary page to verify that the correct IODD files for the attached IO-Link devices have been loaded on the IO-Link Master. The correct file is loaded if an xml file name displays in the IODD Name field.


Changing Parameters on the FD-Q10C with the GUI

1. The FD-Q10C displays as expected in the PORT page.

2. Click the EDIT button to make parameter changes using the GUI.

There is a temporary bug using the GUI to configure the flow sensor. The IODD file contains multiple drop lists with large ranges that cause long running script errors. The ISDU Interface can be used in conjunction with the IODD file to configure the flow meter. The GUI can read the IODD file and displays information about the currently configured value and the range of permitted values.


Changing Parameters Using the ISDU Interface

This shows using the IO-Link ISDU Interface to change configuration parameters. Open the IO-Link Device ISDU Interface by clicking the + next the name.

Please note:

• You must enter the decimal value for the ISDU Block Index and ISDU Sub-index.

• The following images do not display the complete web page.

• The following screenshots do not illustrate the system responses. The IO-Link Master responds with a command executed notification.

1. If necessary, retrieve the current value of the ISDU Index that you are planning on changing.


2. Change the parameter from 3 to 5.

3. Change the parameter from 134 to 200.

4. Click REFRESH to observe that the parameter changes executed.


Restore Factory Defaults

Returning the FD-Q10C to factory defaults is easy using the IO-Link Device - Port page. Typically, you can click the EDIT button, scroll down and click the Restore Factory button. In this case, we will use the ISDU Interface to reset to the factory defaults.

1. Open the IO-Link Device ISDU Interface.

2. Type 2 as the ISDU Block Index and type 82 for the command.


3. Click REFRESH to verify that the parameters have reverted to their original values.


Using the Data Storage Feature

The Data Storage feature can be implemented automatically or manually using Application Base v1.2.4 or higher.

The FD-Q10C has been configured accordingly before enabling the Automatic Upload Data Storage feature.

• ISDU Index 102 = 4 (Default = 3)




Automatic Data Storage - Upload

The following illustrates how the Automatic Data Storage feature works. In this example, both Automatic Upload and Download are enabled, then several parameters will be changed, the FD-Q10C is disconnected and reconnected to illustrate that the originally stored parameters are downloaded back to the FD-Q10C.

1. Click Configuration | IO-Link Settings.

2. Click the EDIT button.

3. Click Automatic Upload Enable to On.

4. Click the SAVE button. The data storage (sensor configuration) uploads to the IO-Link Master as soon as the SAVE button is clicked.


5. Notice that the IO-Link Diagnostics page displays that Automatic Data Storage Configuration for uploading and downloading is enabled.

6. Reset the FD-Q10C to factory defaults.


7. Verify that the settings have been reset.

8. Click Configuration | IO-Link.

9. Click EDIT and set the Automatic Upload Enable option to Off.

10. Set the Automatic Download Enable option to On.

11. Click SAVE.

12. Remove the FD-Q10C from the IO-Link Master.

13. Reattach the FD-Q10C to the IO-Link Master.


14. Verify that the data storage downloads to the FD-Q10C.

This failed because the IODD file dictates that there are zero bytes to be downloaded and the list of indexes to be downloaded is zero.


Clearing Data Storage

Clearing Data Storage from a port is easy. Simply click the EDIT button and then the CLEAR button.

Manual Data Storage

This functionality was not tested since there is no data to upload or download as dictated by the IODD file.


Using the Device Validation Feature

The FD-Q10C supports Compatible Device Validation. A device serial number is required for Identical Device Validation. This report does not illustrate Compatible Device Validation with another FD-Q10C because a single FD-Q10C was available for testing.

Incompatible Device Attached to Port

1. In the IO-Link Configuration page, click EDIT, set Device Validation mode to Compatible.

2. Click the GET ATTACHED button.

3. Click SAVE.

4. Remove the FD-Q10C and connect another IO-Link device (not a FD-Q10C).


5. The IO-Link LED on the IO-Link Master is now flashing red to indicate that an incompatible device is connected to the port. In addition, the IO-Link Diagnostics page displays that an incompatible device is attached to the port.


6. Reconnect the FD-Q10C to the port, notice that the sensor begins functioning without any intervention.
