LabVIEW support for IO-Link device

[MogaRaghu]

For a new application I have a proportional amplifier that takes commands via an IO-Link interface. 

Just wanted to know if there is any native support for this protocol in LV.  The device IO-Link interface meets Spec V1.1 and communicates at 230.4 kBaud

Thanks for any help !!

I don't think NI will implement this specific protocol into a driver for LabVIEW and provide some hardware for that communication bus in their portfolio.

But I do think it would be much easier to use a IO-Link gateway that will translate Ethernet/Modbus/whatever protocols to IO-Link. I could think of something like this…

Hi,

I assumes you have a master connected to your device.

Thought this and its technology you should have a .dll or a API to control the master which is dialoging with your device via the IODD.

That is what I've used up to now to communicate with IO Link device.
