Proficloud - IIoT-Platform of Phoenix Contact

NodeRED ProficloudNodes

This Nodes can be used to connect to the IIoT-Platform from Phoenix Contact the Proficloud

Usage

ProficloudDevice Node: This node represents a device of the Proficloud. You can set up the metadata in the node configuration. TSD, TrafficLight and Logs will be send through the input of the node.

TimeSeriesData: Send a msg.payload.data object to the node input. It will send the data to the cloud to visualize it on a dashboard in the Time Series Data Service.

example payload:

msg = {};
msg.payload = {"data" : {"humidity": 12.0, "temp": 2.0}};
return msg;

TrafficLight: The traffic light will show up as color and Device status in the Device Management Service. The node needs a msg.payload.trafficLight object with the color (0 = Green, 1 = Orange, 2 = Red) and a message to be displayed as the Device status. Neither one of them shall be missing. example payload:

msg = {};
msg.payload = {"trafficlight": {"color": 2, "msg": "Some errors"}};
return msg;

To send a log, the node needs a msg.payload.log object with the message, the tag and the level of the log to be displayed in the Logs-Panel of the Device Management Service. Neither one of them shall be missing. example payload:

msg = {};
msg.payload = {"log": {"level": 2, "tag":"Node-RED","msg": "System started"}};
return msg;

Reference Implementation: You can import the following flow as a reference implementation.
