## S15C Modbus Master to IO-Link Device Converter 

## Datasheet 

- Compact Modbus master to IO-Link device converter that is userconfigurable to read up to 60 registers and write up to 15 

- 

   - Predefined ModBus registers are sent over IO-Link automatically 

- Rugged over-molded design meets IEC IP65, IEC IP67, and IEC IP68 

- Connects directly to a sensor or anywhere in-line for ease of use

## Configuration 

For more information, see Banner P/N 217176 S15C Modbus Converter (Generic) - IO-Link Data Reference Guide and Banner P/N 217165 S15C-MGN-KQ IODD Files. 

## IO-Link[®] 

IO-Link[®] is a point-to-point communication link between a master device and a sensor and/or light. It can be used to automatically parameterize sensors or lights and to transmit process data. For the latest IO-Link protocol and specifications, please visit www.iolink.com. 

For the latest IODD files, please refer to the Banner Engineering Corp website at: www.bannerengineering.com. 

## Register Read 

The status of Modbus Register Reads is available via Process Data In. The S15C converter provides for the reading of four userselectable sets of Modbus Registers: 

- Read Register Set 0 

- Read Register Set 1 

- Read Register Set 2 

- Read Register Set 3 

Using IO-Link Parameter values, each Read Register Set allows 15 ModBus register addresses to be entered and read. 

Using the Register Set To Read value in the Process Data Out, four sets of 15 ModBus registers can be read over Process Data In for a potential total of 60 unique ModBus register reads. 

## Register Write 

The status of Modbus Register Writes and Verification is available via Process Data In. The S15C converter provides for writing data to 15 Modbus registers. Using IO-Link Parameter values, the following write update types are available: 

- Write Each Cycle 

- Write Once 

- Write Each Cycle if Mismatched 

- Write Once if Mismatched 

Using IO-Link Parameter values, the choice of verifying the results of a write is available, along with the following write command types: 

- Use Write Single Register Command 

- Use Write Multiple Register Command

## Status Indicators 

Power LED Indicator (Green) 

- Solid Green = Power On 

- Off = Power Off 

IO-Link Communication LED Indicator (Amber) 

- Flashing Amber (900 ms On, 100 ms Off) = IO-Link communications are active 

- Off = IO-Link communications are not present 

Modbus Communication LED Indicator (Amber) 

- Flashing Amber (4 Hz) = Modbus communications are active 

- Solid Amber for 2 seconds to Off = Modbus communications are lost after connection 

- Solid Amber for 2 seconds to Flashing Amber (4 Hz) = Modbus communications momentarily lost, but communication reestablished 

- Solid Amber = Modbus communications are intermittent, or communications error occurs more frequently than once every 2 seconds 

- Off = Modbus communications are not present
