IEC 61131-9:2022 specifies a single-drop digital communication interface technology for small sensors and actuators SDCI (commonly known as IO-Link™ ), which extends the traditional digital input and digital output interfaces as defined in IEC 61131-2 towards a point-to-point communication link for the exchange of complex data in both directions. This techno¬logy also enables the transfer of parameters to Devices and the delivery of identification and diagnostic information from the Devices to the automation system.
This technology is mainly intended for use with simple sensors and actuators in factory automation, which include small and cost-effective microcontrollers.
This document specifies the SDCI communication services and protocol (physical layer, data link layer and application layer in accordance with the ISO/OSI reference model) for both SDCI Masters and Devices.
This document also includes EMC test requirements.
This document does not cover communication interfaces or systems incorporating multiple point or multiple drop linkages, or integration of SDCI into higher level systems such as fieldbuses.

IEC 60751:2022 specifies the requirements, in addition to the resistance versus temperature relationship, for both industrial platinum resistance thermometers (later referred to as "thermometers") and industrial platinum resistance temperature sensors (later referred to as "platinum resistors") whose electrical resistance is derived from defined functions of temperature.

If a standard for hazardous service conflicts with the requirements of this document, the standard for hazardous service should take precedence.

IEC 60584-3:2021 It is necessary for thermocouple temperature measurement that the electro-motive force (abbreviated as e.m.f. hereafter) of the thermocouple circuit is precisely measured by a measuring instrument.

It specifies identification and manufacturing tolerances for extension and compensating cables (mineral insulated extension and compensating cables are not included) provided directly to users of industrial processes. These tolerances are determined with respect to the e.m.f. ver-sus temperature relationship of IEC 60584-1. The requirements for extension and compensating cables for use in industrial process control are specified.
