Introduction

The KL6224 IO-Link master terminal enables connection of up to four IO-Link devices. These can be actuators, sensors or a combination of both. A point-to-point connection is used between the terminal and the device.

IO-Link is designed as an intelligent link between the fieldbus level and the sensor, wherein parameterization information can be exchanged bidirectionally via the IO-Link connection. The IO-Link devices can be parameterized via the KS2000 configuration software or from the PLC via register communication.

By default the KL6224 operates as a four-channel input terminal (24 V_DC), which communicates with connected IO-Link devices, parameterizes them and adjusts their operating mode as required.

Thanks to the integration of the KL6224 in the HD housing with 16 connection points, each IO-Link device can be operated in 3-wire mode. The direct plug-in technique enables toolless construction.
