IO-Link Technology Enables

Industry 4.0 and IIoT SolutionsIIoT benefits with direct sensor connection through OPC UA.

Comtrol’s IO-Link Masters to simultaneously provide a sensors Process data to PLC platforms, while also sending the sensors ISDU Service and Process data via Modbus TCP or OPC-UA upstream to IIoT/Industrie 4.0 Cloud solutions or SCADA systems.

BENEFITS OF OPC UA

• No PLC required • The IO-Link Master OPC UA series combines the benefits of the IO-Link standard, OPC UA and

additional use of EtherNet/IP™, Modbus TCP and PROFINET IO protocols simultaneously.• Comtrol’s IO-Link Master allows you to solely use OPC-UA, without a PLC involved, which

saves on hardware and software costs.• Send IO-Link or Digital device information directly up to software systems such as Ignition,

Xetics, GE Proficy, Wonderware, Iconics, or any other client software supporting OPC UA.• Open architecture • IIoT and Industry 4.0 enabled • Simultaneous connection using

• EtherNet/IP, OPC UA and Modbus TCP • Profinet, OPC UA and Modbus TCP

• Provide sensor data to monitor machine efficiency• Countless application possibilities

ENABLING INDUSTRY 4.0 WITH OPC UA

OPC UA PROVIDES SENSOR DATA ANALYTICS
