Can you explain what is the use of Third party middleware for IO-Link device stack V1.1 (provided
by TEConcept GmbH)? i noticed that this middleware was not present in the previous version of the two before mentioned board: STEVAL-BFA001V1B and STEVAL-IDP004V1. Can you explain the advantage of this middleware. Thank you.

This IO-Link stack ensures communication interoperability with other IO-Link devices, specifically an IO-Link master. In other words, beside the IO-Link compliant hardware (ST products) we added also SW layer through our partner to complete the IO-Link solution. I would also recommend to read through this User manual
