If you are a LabVIEW or TestStand developer, you should definitely try GPower IO-Link! A universal driver for more than 30,000 IO-Link devices! For the first time, it is plug-and-play to access encoders, digital and analog I/O, stack lights, push buttons, and much more simply by loading their IODD file in LabVIEW or TestStand.
Introduction
Although IO-Link has existed for more than a decade, there has been no easy way to connect the devices with NI’s toolchain. But now there is—and that is what makes GPower IO-Link revolutionary. Simply by installing a toolkit, you gain access to data from more than 30,000 devices in your LabVIEW code. In addition, we have taken our own medicine by using our IO-Link LabVIEW Toolkit to build IO-Link step types for TestStand.
