Configurability to Meet Any Application
Advanced Logic and Control via IO-Link and Modbus
Using IO-Link or Modbus communication enables centralized configuration, real-time control, and access to diagnostic data from the control system. Visual behavior can be dynamically adjusted based on machine states or operator input, while touch events provide feedback directly to the system. The result is smarter interaction, faster troubleshooting, and tighter integration with modern automation architectures.
PICK-IQ® for High Device Density
PICK-IQ communication enables greater speed and accuracy in medium- and large-scale pick-to-light systems by adding built-in intelligence to picking and order fulfillment applications. Built on Modbus RTU but optimized for faster, more efficient communication over an RS-485 serial network, PICK-IQ simplifies integration through automatic addressing and standardized messaging, reducing setup time and system changes. S22 pick-to-light devices support configurable colors, intensities, and animations, with built-in logic for pick, confirm, error, and replenishment states that improve operator efficiency while minimizing controller programming. The result is a scalable, daisy-chainable system with low-latency communication that adapts easily as layouts and requirements change.
Locally Programmed Logic Via Discrete I/O
Discrete I/O models use hardwired inputs and touch to control indicator behavior and outputs, with logic configured locally using Banner's free Pro Editor software.
Three pick-to-light logic functions are available (depending on model), each defining how the device changes state in response to an input signal and a touch
| Input | Touch | Output | C Funtion | D Function | E Function | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| State 1 | Input Off | Touch None | Output None | C Funtion  Off |
D Function Off |
E Function Off |
| State 2 | Input On | Touch None | Output None | C Funtion  On: Color 1 |
D Function On: Color 1 |
E Function On: Color 1 |
| State 3 | Input Off | Touch Yes | Output Yes | C Funtion  On: Color 2 |
D Function Off |
E Function  On: Color 2 |
| State 4 | Input On | Touch Yes | Output Yes | C Funtion On: Color 2 |
D Function On: Color 1 |
E Function On: Color 1 |
Pick-to-Light: C Function
Two-color operation: the device turns on to Color 1 when the input signal is active, then confirms the pick by changing to Color 2 when touched.
Pick-to-Light: D Function
Single-color operation: the device turns on to Color 1 when the input signal is active, then advances the pick sequence by turning on the output when touched (light remains Color 1).
Pick-to-Light: E Function
Two-color operation: the device turns on to Color 1 when the input signal is active; when touched, it advances the pick sequence by turning on the output (input active) or provides touch indication by changing to Color 2 (input inactive).
