1.2 Terms used
Memory plug Plug with storage medium
Memory plug empty Setting at the factory�
No parameter set is saved in the memory plug�
The memory plug has to be connected to a sensor or a PC
system in order to save a valid parameter set�
Memory plug full A valid parameter set is available in the memory of the
memory plug�
Memory plug
transparent
The memory plug is transparent if after successful
saving of the parameters all unfiltered sensor signals are
transmitted to the higher-level system�
For further data operation the operating voltage or the
connection sensor - memory plug must be interrupted
once�
[Write protected] • If the memory plug is empty (no parameter set saved),
one parameter set can be written to the memory plug
once�
• If the memory plug is full (a parameter set is saved), it is
protected against further writing�
[Read/Write] The memory plug is not protected against overwriting� The
internal data set is overwritten when the memory plug is
connected to a sensor�
Sensor of the same
type
Sensors of the same type have the same IO-Link device ID
or can take this ID in the compatibility mode� However, they
do have a different serial number�
Identical sensor Physically identical device: The serial number of the sensor
and the saved parameter set are the same�
IODD Abbreviation for IO Device Description� It is a file describing
the parameters of the IO-Link devices� This file can be
interpreted by machines�
An IODD is assigned to each IO-Link device ID�

2 Safety instructions
• Read this document before setting up the product and keep it during the entire
service life�
• The product must be suitable for the corresponding applications and
environmental conditions without any restrictions�
• Only use the product for its intended purpose (→ Functions and features).
• If the operating instructions or the technical data are not adhered to, personal
injury and/or damage to property may occur�
• The manufacturer assumes no liability or warranty for any consequences
caused by tampering with the product or incorrect use by the operator�
• Installation, electrical connection, set-up, operation and maintenance of the
product must be carried out by qualified personnel authorised by the machine
operator�
• Changing parameters during operation will influence the function of the plant�
Ensure that no malfunction or dangerous conditions will occur in the plant�
• Protect units and cables against damage�

3 Factory setting
On delivery the memory plug is empty
(no parameter set saved)�
When the supply voltage is applied,
the LED WRITE flashes slowly (1 Hz)�
In this state one parameter set can be
written to the memory plug once�
Then it changes to the mode [Write
protected]�
To write a new parameter set to the device, the memory plug has to be
reset to the factory setting
(→ 6.6 Configure the memory plug via LR DEVICE)�
4 Functions and features
The memory plug saves parameter sets of IO-Link devices� It offers the following
options:
• Bi-directional backup for IO-Link V1�1 sensors�
• Bi-directional backup for IO-Link V1�0 sensors from ifm electronic�
• Preconfiguration as data carrier via PC�
4.1 Applications without PC
• Save the parameter set of a sensor once → 6.1.
• Save the parameter set of a sensor continuously → 6.2.
• Copy the parameter set of a sensor (copy to several sensors of the same type;
e�g� in series production or for fast set-up)
(→ 6.3 Copy the parameter set of a sensor)�
• Set the parameters of replacement sensors (without using further tools, without
configuration tools or menu handling) (→ 6.4)�
• Restore the parameter set of a sensor (e�g� during start-up of an installation)
(→ 6.5)�

4.2 Applications with IO-Link master and LR DEVICE
(software)
• Configure the memory plug via LR DEVICE (software) → 6.6.
• Write the data stored on the memory plug → 6.6.1.
• Read and edit the data stored on the memory plug → 6.6.2.
4.3 Basic operating conditions
• Negative switching sensors are not supported�
• The memory plug cannot be used with IO-Link actuators�
• IO-Link sensors with COM3 are not supported�
• The memory plug is intended for saving the data of IO-Link sensors used
without IO-Link master�
• Data in the parameter set of the sensor protected by an access code cannot be
overwritten by the memory plug�
The memory plug saves / writes data after the following operations�
• After application of the supply voltage�
• After interrupting and restoring the connection between the memory
plug and the sensor�
After saving the parameters all sensor signals are linked through without
being changed� The output function of the sensor, its quality and speed
remain unchanged� An integrated memory plug does not influence the
complete system�
Recommended operating mode:
Operation in the [Write protected] mode is recommended� This
mode ensures that a parameter set saved in the memory plug is not
unintentionally overwritten� In the [Read/Write] mode the memory plug is
not write-protected!
The manufacturer of an IO-Link sensor is responsible for providing all
parameters necessary for an exchange� The memory plug reads this
information from the sensor and saves exactly these parameters�
The memory plug cannot be used in a system with IO-Link master� The
functionality of the system cannot be guaranteed�

6 Operation
6.1 Save the parameter set of a sensor once
Requirement: The memory plug is used as delivered (empty / [Write protected])�
1►Connect the memory plug to the supply
voltage�
Ub
2►Connect memory plug and sensor�
> The memory plug reads the parameter set
of the sensor and saves it�
Ub P
P
Reading process
Process terminated�
Memory plug full / [Write protected]�
UB = Operating voltage; P = Parameter set
The empty memory plug can carry out this process only once� It can be reset to
the factory setting (→ 6.6.3)�
Do not install a brand new memory plug before setting the sensor
parameters�
If the memory plug is installed before parameter setting is completed, the
parameter set defined at this point will be saved and any further parameter
change of the connected sensor will be reversed with the next data
exchange�

10
6.2 Save the parameter set of a sensor continuously
Requirement: Memory plug in the [Read/Write] mode�
To change from [Write protected] to [Read/Write] → 6.6 Memory plug parameter
setting�
1►Connect the memory plug between the
sensor and the evaluation unit of the
installation�
Ub P
Display when the memory plug is
empty
Display when the memory plug is full
2The parameter set of the sensor is changed
(P → P1).
Ub P1
3►Disconnect the memory plug from the
sensor and connect it again�
> The memory plug reads the changed
parameter set P1 and saves it�
