Below is a high-level overview of the steps r equired to quick ly get the MAXREFDE S36#
design running by connecting it to the Balluff USB IO-Link master and Bal luff software.
Detailed instructions for each step are provided in the following pages.
1) Connect the A-to-B Type USB cable from the PC and yellow IO-Link cable to the
Balluff USB IO-Link master (silver box with part number BNI USB-901-000-A501)
as shown in Figure 1.
2) Connect the MAXREFDES36# board to the other side of the yellow IO-Link cable.
Make sure the green LED is lit as shown in Figure 2. The red and yellow LEDs do
not need to be lit.
3) Download the latest “all design files” RD36V01_XX.ZIP file located at the
MAXREFDES36# reference design page.
4) Extract the RD36V01_XX.ZIP file to a directory on your PC.
5) Install the Balluff IO-Link Device Tool.
6) Add the MAXREFDES36# digital input hub as a device into the Balluff IO -Link
Device Tool.
7) Connect to the MAXREFDES36# by pressing the online connection button.

3. Included Files
The RD36_RL78_V01_XX.ZIP contains the corresponding IO-Link Device Descriptor
(IODD) files. The IODD contains information on communication properties, device
parameters, identification, process, and diagnostic data. It includes an XML file, an
image of the device, an icon image, and the manufacturer’s logo. The IODD st ructure is
the same for all devices of all manufacturers, and is always represented in the same
way by the IODD interpreter tools.

4. Procedure
1. Connect the A-to-B Type USB cable from the PC and yellow IO-Link cable to
the Balluff USB IO-Link master (silver box wi th part number BNI USB-901-000A501) as shown in Figure 1.
2. Connect the MAXREFDES36# proximity sensor board to the other side of the
yellow IO-Link cable. Make sure the green LED is lit as shown in Figure 2. The
red and yellow LEDs do not need to be lit.
3. Download the latest “all design files” RD36V01_XX.ZIP file at
www.maximintegrated.com/AN5879. All files available for download are
available at the bottom of the page.
4. Extract the RD36V01_XX.ZIP file to a directory on your PC. The location is
arbitrary but the maximum path length limitation in Windows (260 character s)
should not be exceeded.
5. Install the Balluff IO-Link Device Tool. This tool comes with the pu r c hase of the
Balluff USB IO-Link master (silver box with part number BNI USB-901-000A501). Run the setup.exe file using the Run as administrator mode.
