How can I tell if the device can be sold in my country?

You can find the list of countries with approvals on the datasheet which is available on our website.

What is the difference between E30446 and EIO330?

E30446 is an inline bluetooth adapter. It is connected between sensor and master and "listens" to the communication. This data is then sent to a smart phone or can be stored. A parameterization is not possible. EIO330 is connected to the IO-Link master. It can show the process data and events of all other sensors and actuators connected to the master. Parameterization of the sensors is also possible.

Does EIO330 work with other IO-Link masters than ifm´s?

No, it has to be an ifm IO-Link master.

How much process data can EIO330 store?

This depends on the data rate and the number of process values a connected sensor provides, and on how many sensors are recorded. Some typical values are given in the following table: Sensor Process data out Data recording time (memory 32 MB, recording) rate 500 ms byte Hours PN7071 2 2256 TCC501 8 552 VVB021 20 216 DV1500 6 744 TAD981 8 552 SM7020 13 336 PI2794 2 2256 KQ6001 2 2256

Configure and monitor IO-Link devices via Bluetooth adapter

New IO-Link Bluetooth adapter allows access to sensors via smartphone*

Easy parameter setting and reading of process values and events of all IO-Link devices connected to the master

ifm moneo blue available free of charge for iOS and Android

Convenient parameter setting of many sensors thanks to graphic representation

With IP69K rating the adapter is also suitable for use in hygienic areas

Check and configure IO-Link sensors on the smartphone
With the Bluetooth adapter for IO-Link masters ifm offers a convenient way to read the data of the devices connected to the master and of the master itself and to adjust parameters. The process flow can be maintained by reacting to the situation without first leaving the plant and visiting the IT department. The password protection prevents unwanted tampering with the existing parameterisation.

Free app provides graphic representation
The highlight of the intuitive app, which is available free of charge for Apple and Android smartphones, is that it features graphic representation, which makes parameter setting of the TCC temperature sensor or the MVQ101 valve sensor, for example, even easier.

Software and hardware requirements
The app requires iOS from version 10.3 or Android from version 5.0. The smartphone must support Bluetooth 4.1. Display on tablets is already possible, a full tablet version will be made available with the coming updates.
The Bluetooth adapter can be used with all ifm IO-Link masters from firmware version 2.1. Both Bluetooth Classic and Bluetooth Low Energy (BTLE) are supported. The range is approx. 10 to 30 metres, depending on the respective installation situation.

Transmission of recorded process data via e-mail
The Bluetooth adapter can record process data. These recordings can then be sent as a zip file for further evaluation on the computer directly from moneo blue.

* The list of countries which can use this plug can be found in the Bluetooth plug’s data sheet.

Use case in food manufacturing facilities

The customer would like to able to adjust the valves to adapt the product flow. The Bluetooth adapter is a simple solution. It is connected to the master and together with the free mone|blue app, which is downloadable on a smartphone or tablet, the valve positions can be adjusted manually by following the appropriate sensor values. A recording mode allows the process data to be recorded for validation purposes and is available during start-up phases
