System Requirements:

• Windows 10 Version 1607 or higher
• Windows 11
• 32 or 64 bit

This installation container adds support for parameterizing of IO-Link devices to Festo Automation Suite. It consists of the IO-Link extension for installing and administering IODDs and the IO-Link plug-in for setting up parameters and retrieving device diagnostics.

New Features:

• Parameter set duplication for serial commissioning of AP-A & VTUX modules in the valve terminal overview
• Multiple permanent saving of VTUX parameters in the valve manifold overview to speed up serial commissioning
• Parameter files from AP-A & VTUX devices can be exported and imported
• Implementation of the watchlist in the right toolbar when an online connection to the device is established
• Each AP & VTUX device type has default parameters pre-configured in the watchlist, allowing parameters to be viewed immediately after a connection is established
• Display of IO-Link process data for CPX-AP IO-Link master devices
• Forcing of process data in EtherCAT topologies has been enabled
• When VTUX vacuum modules are forced, this is now displayed in the Connection Dashboard with the familiar orange warning
• Support for CTED devices

Fixed Bugs:

• Forcing of digital outputs not possible with valve terminals
• Process data values for CPX-AP-A-PN topologies were displayed incorrectly

Known Limitations:

• Display of the unit for VABX modules instead of [ms] in [s]
