Hi all,

are there any news concerning this statement:

"...In a second step we are planning to integrate IO Link Master firmware with stack example into TI SDK. I don not have a fixed date for SDK release yet."

Regards, Thomas

  • Hello Thomas,

      we plan IO Link Master driver integration into SDK with a release date by end of March. This will not include master stack which is a 3rd party software component. Our stack partners can already work with you on the project. Right now I would recommend TMG. Other possible stack partners are TEConcept and IQ2.

    Let me if you want me to make the connection to the stack partners.

    Best Regards,

       Thomas


  • Hello Thomas,

    in fact we are looking for a suitable master stack for evaluation on the TMDSIDK437X platform.
    Since this is our first development with IO Link the stack vendor should be able to support us.

    It's very important for us to have a IO Link Master stack solution providing a interface
    (regarding IODD's) which is configurable e.g. by loading a config file from SD card.
    We don't want to use any configuration tool - devices should be plug 'n play.
    In our standard application, the IO Link device configuration remains static.
    But the possibility to add/use different IO Link devices should be given without the need
    to change or adapt the application software.

    I know TEConcept from a previous job. TMG is new for me; is your recommendation based on the fact
    that you have already experience with their solution?

    If you can make the connection to both TMG and TEConcept this could be a good starting point for us.

    Thanks in advance,
    Thomas

  • Hi,

    In the meantime a few days have passed I would like to ask if there are any news concerning this topic.

    An answer after the Hannover fair would be great.

    Kind Regards,

  • Hello Thomas,

    we have now released SDK with IO Link Master driver for AM437x IDK. You can go to following page to download:

    software-dl.ti.com/.../index_FDS.html

    After installation of SDK you can find the driver here:

    <PDK_INSTALL_PATH>/packages/ti/drv/iolink

    Note the stack souce is not included in the SDK, please refer to the ti/drv/iolink/test/stack_test/README.txt on how to build the stack example.

    In terms of stack supplier you can work with IQ2, TEConcept and TMG.
