The IOLinkDeviceEventType is the base EventType for Events generated from IO-Link Devices. It is formally defined in Table 48.

The following rules for the inherited Properties apply.
- The mandatory Property SourceNode shall be the NodeId of the object representing the IO-Link Device the event originates from.
- The mandatory Property SourceName shall be the string part of the BrowseName of the Object representing the IO-Link Device the Event originates from.
- The mandatory Property Time shall be the time the IO-Link Master receives the Event from the IO-Link Device.
Note that the event might have been generated already at an earlier time (more than communication delays) in the IO-Link Device, before it was received by the IO-Link Master.
- The mandatory Property ReceiveTime shall be set to the time the OPC UA Server receives the event. In case the OPC UA Server runs on the IO-Link Master, this might be the same value as the value of Property Time.
- In case the IO-Link event code is not described in an IODD, the mandatory Property Message shall be set to “IO-Link EventCode: 0x<xxxx>” for the English locale, where xxxx is the event code as hexadecimal representation. For example, for event code 0x18FF the message shall be “IO-Link EventCode: 0x18FF”. The server may provide different locales containing a translation of that string. In case the IO-Link Specification defines a specific string (Table D.1 of IO-Link Specification) for a specific event code, the server may also use that string instead of the generic message. For example, for event code 0x4000 the string “Temperature fault – Overload” is defined and can be used alternatively as Message.
- The mandatory Property IOLinkEventCode shall provide the two-octet event code of the IO-Link Device as UInt16.
