  • Patent number: 11704261
    Abstract: The invention relates to a system for establishing a data connection between a master unit (M) and at least one device unit (D), wherein the master unit (M) is coupled to a primary coupler unit (Dprim) and the at least one device unit (D) is coupled to a secondary coupler unit (Dsec), in each case for electrical power transmission and for data transmission. The primary coupler unit (Dprim) and the secondary coupler unit (Dsec) can be coupled for data transmission. A control signal can be received and the system has three operating states that can be activated in dependence on the received control signal. When the first operating state is activated, there is a data connection according to the IO-Link standard between the master unit (M) and the device unit (D).

  • Publication number: 20220027298
    Abstract: A system and method for establishing a data connection between a master unit and a device unit. The master unit is coupled to a primary coupler unit and the device unit is coupled to a secondary coupler unit, in each case for electrical power transmission and for data transmission. The primary coupler unit and the secondary coupler unit can be coupled for data transmission. In a first operating state, an IO-Link standard data connection is between the master unit and the device unit. In a second operating state, primary coupler identification data is allocated to the primary coupler unit, and a data connection according to the IO-Link standard is between the master unit and the primary coupler unit. In a third operating state, secondary coupler identification data is allocated to the secondary coupler unit and the IO-Link standard data connection is between the master unit and the secondary coupler unit.
