3 Functions and features
The interface connects sensors with IO-Link capability to a PC and provides the
following options via the IO-Link interface:
• Reading of the current parameter setting�
• Parameter setting of the sensor�
• Reading of the current measured values and further process values�
The interface is not suitable for permanent installation as an automation device�
The interface with connected sensor requires the complete current
provided by a USB port�
► Therefore only operate it directly on a USB port or on an active USB
hub�
If the interface is connected via a passive USB extension or a passive
USB hub, it is deactivated�
The sensor must not be connected to an additional parallel power supply�
This can destroy the USB port�
Due to properties of the Windows
®
operating systems correct functioning of
several interfaces connected in parallel cannot be guaranteed�

4 Installation
You must have administrator rights for installation�
► Connect the interface to the PC via a USB port�► Connect the USB memory stick LINERECORDER DEVICE to the PC or use
the download version LINERECORDER DEVICE�
► Execute the installation file "ifm Software�exe"�
>The Microsoft Windows® hardware wizard is started�

5 Set-up
► Connect the interface to the sensor and to a USB 2�0 port of the PC�
>After the initialisation time of approx� 5 seconds the interface supplies the
sensor with operating voltage�
>If the sensor is addressed via the software for parameter setting and set-up of
IO-Link sensors "LINERECORDER DEVICE" (→ 3.3), the interface determines
the correct communication mode and starts the exchange of data�
If the sensor does not have a suitable communication protocol, no data is
exchanged� But the sensor continues to be supplied with operating voltage� This
enables operation for testing or demonstration purposes�
