This library is used to control IO-Link devices that are connected to a SIMATIC S7-1500 PLC. It also backs up and restores the configuration of devices and the Siemens IO-Link master. Additionally, it reads diagnostic data from devices.
It is based on the IO-Link library for the S7-1500 PLC in the TIA Portal context. You can find the original library here:
