Chapter 13 IO-Link Communication Module AS04SIL

Overview
Thank you for using the IO-Link master module AS04SIL-A. To ensure that your AS04SIL-A is installed and operated
correctly, read this manual carefully before using the module.
The AS04SIL-A module is an AS series IO-Link communication module (hereafter referred to as “SIL” module) connected
on the right side of AS CPU module or AS00SCM-A (RTU mode). When the communication card AS-FCOPM is being used
together, they serve as a CAN remote device. SIL provides 4 channels, which can be separately configured in IO-Link
master or standard I/O (SIO) mode. IO-Link master can freely connect with IO-Link devices and supports the hybrid use of
IO-Link sensors and traditional sensors. Digital I/O of the SIL module can be extended with IO-Link hubs so that the sensors
which do not support IO-Link can be connected to. Therefore it is pretty flexible to use the SIL module.
The setup software for AS04SIL-A is HWCONFIG 4.0 which is built in ISPSoft. You can use it after downloading the
software from Delta official website and installing it.
