Successfully Integrating IO-Link: A Technical Guide for Newcomers
This article highlights the most common technical and organizational challenges in IO-Link integration and shows how you can achieve a certified product in a predictable and resource-efficient manner.
The COD: For all who want to know where it's going to hit – before it hits.
Pre-configure and test IO-Link masters – without real devices. TEConcept's COD emulates IO-Link devices, saving time and costs...
IO-Link Spy
It is simply clamped onto the existing IO-Link cable and passively taps the signal. No interruption, no impact on timing, no effect on machine operation.
The Holy Trinity of IO-Link Quality
Anyone working with IO-Link in real machines knows this situation: the system is fundamentally stable, but from time to time...Two Decades of Experience for Future-Proof IO-Link Development
For over two decades, TEConcept has been supporting companies through all phases of the product lifecycle – from the initial idea to the certified electronic assembly. Although technical requirements are constantly increasing, we deliver precise solutions for IO-Link that not only work, but are also future-proof.

What we offer to our customers:
Our product categories offer a wide range of IO-Link tools, software, and services to support your IO-Link project at every stage, whether you’re developing complete electronic assemblies or simply need assistance. We believe you are the experts on your product; we provide support on the IO-Link side. From prototyping to series production, we take full responsibility for your product!
IO-Link Knowledge Transfer
- The IO-Link Pathfinder Workshop assesses the suitability of IO-Link for your product requirements and provides a clear project roadmap.
- Customized IO-Link Workshops provide knowledge on, for example, IO-Link architecture and development, as well as IO-Link certification and the use of IO-Link tools and software.
IO-Link Stacks
- With the Device Stack and the Master Stack, we offer full access to our long-established software, which you can customize for your application.
- For the development of safety masters, we offer a Safety Master Stack, and the Safety Device Stack is also already in development.
IO-Link Developer Kits
- You can test our Stacks in advance with the IO-Link Developer Kits and reference designs from our partners. The Developer Kits are suitable for getting started with the development of new IO-Link solutions or testing existing components.
- Both master boards and device demo boards are available with integration via Ethernet, USB, or UART.
IO-Link Development Tools
- The 1-Port USB-C Master enables easy communication with the developed IO-Link Device.
- The IODD-Studio simplifies the creation of the IODD, as parameters can be easily defined via an input mask.
- With the COD, any IODDs can be emulated. This helps, for example, with prototype development and testing the compatibility of IO-Link Masters.
IO-Link Diagnostic and Test Tools
- Errors in IO-Link communication can be identified and then rectified using the Diagnosis Tool or the new IO-Link Spy.
- For IO-Link marketing, certification is mandatory in addition to product-specific requirements validation. In addition to the corresponding test tools for the protocol, physical layer, and EMC tests, we also offer to conduct the tests as an accredited IO-Link Test Center.
Years of Experience & Personal Support
Since IO-Link was established as a standard in industrial automation, TEConcept has been one of the leading contacts in the German-speaking region. Thanks to our deep expertise in IEC61131-9 and IO-Link mapping, we guide you through complex projects as equals. In particular, our IO-Link workshops and training sessions ensure that your team not only works with ready-made solutions but can also independently exploit their potential.
01
20+ Years of Experience in Embedded Development
For more than two decades, we have been developing customized embedded solutions that are used in industrial applications worldwide. Our deep technical understanding, coupled with practical implementation expertise, enables robust systems – from firmware to hardware.
02
Through our close collaboration with the IO-Link Community, we are always at the forefront of standards, technologies, and testing procedures. This ensures that our developments are both compliant and future-proof – and that your products can be reliably certified.
03
Flexible, Practical Application Consulting
Our application consulting starts exactly where you need us – not theoretically, but practically. Together, we develop solutions that integrate smoothly into your systems and offer real added value in operation.
04
Individually Developed Reference Designs
Standard solutions are not always sufficient – which is why we develop specific reference designs that are precisely tailored to your requirements. These serve as the technical basis for your series products and significantly shorten development times.
Solution-oriented. Technological. TEConcept.
Whether you are planning a new product or want to make existing systems IO-Link-capable – we provide comprehensive support. From the selection of suitable tools to the market launch of your solution: We think along, test along, develop along.
We regularly inform you about current developments in the IO-Link world. Whether new standards, protocol extensions, or integration tools – in our blog section you will find:
