The 6ES7531-7MH00-0AB0: Wire-break detection only triggers on the 4..20 mA range, not on 0..20 mA. If your BOM specifies 0..20 mA sensors, plan for manual fault checking or a separate IO-Link master upstream. Diagnostics include a diagnostic alarm, limit value alarms (two upper, two lower per channel), channel status LED (green), and a module diagnostics LED (red). No group error LED, no isochronous mode, and no MAINT LED.
