IO-Link Training

This course is designed to introduce participants to the basic functionality, capabilities, operating principles, and benefits of IO-Link. Participants will configure IO-Link devices including master devices and expansion devices. Learn how to use IO-Link to make analog, digital, and transducer data available to an existing fieldbus network.
