2 System description
A standard PROFICLOUD application comprises at least one PROFICLOUD coupler, a
PROFICLOUD device, and a PROFINET controller.
PROFINET controller The PROFINET controller can be purchased from any controller manufacturer as long as
the device in question complies with the PROFINET specification.
PROFICLOUD coupler The PROFICLOUD coupler connects the local PROFINET network to the PROFICLOUD by
CLOUD COUPLER-PRO means of two Ethernet interfaces: the PROFICLOUD coupler is connected with the local
PROFINET network via the first Ethernet interface. The second Ethernet interface connects
the PROFICLOUD coupler to the Internet. The PROFICLOUD coupler initializes a connec-
tion with the PROFICLOUD automatically and is ready for use after a short amount of time.
The PROFICLOUD coupler must be registered in the PROFICLOUD with a UUID (Univer-
sally Unique Identifier). The PROFINET network then commences communication via the
PROFICLOUD.
PROFICLOUD devices PROFICLOUD devices are also connected to the Internet and are coupled automatically to
AXC CLOUD-PRO the PROFICLOUD.
The PROFICLOUD devices must each be registered in the PROFICLOUD with a UUID (Uni-
versally Unique Identifier) and must be assigned to a PROFICLOUD coupler. The
PROFINET network then commences communication via the PROFICLOUD.

Up to 252 bytes of input and output process data can be sent to the PROFICLOUD. The
AXC CLOUD-PRO supports local bus devices with up to 16 bytes each in process data
length.
Only the I/O modules listed under “Accessories” on page 84 can be used.
In addition to the input and output process data, the AXC CLOUD-PRO also sends diagnos-
tics information of the local bus to the PROFICLOUD. This information is sent in the form of
diagnostic code.
For some diagnostic codes, an additional diagnostic code is generated in order to specify
the error encountered in more detail.
The diagnostic codes are issued in the input bytes 0 ... 1, and the additional diagnostic
codes in the input bytes 2 ... 3 (see Table 3-4).
Example The Axioline F modules AXL F DI16/4 2F, AXL F DO32/1 1F, and AXL F DI16/4 2F are con-
nected one after the other to the AXC CLOUD-PRO.

plug • Make sure that the locking latch snaps in.
Choose a power supply unit that is suitable for the currents in your application. The selection
depends on the bus configuration and the resulting maximum currents.
A power supply without a fall-back characteristic curve must be used for correct op-
eration of the PROFICLOUD device (see Figure 4-8).
When the PROFICLOUD device is switched on, an increased switch-on current is tempo-
rarily triggered. The PROFICLOUD device behaves like a capacitive load when it is
switched on.
Some electronically controlled power supplies have a fall-back characteristic curve (see
Figure 4-7). They are not suitable for operation with capacitive loads.

– Behavior of the device LEDs when switching on for the first time (default setting):
– The UL LED lights up. The FAIL LED flashes briefly then the DBG LED flashes for
around 30 seconds. Then the D LED is permanently on and the RUN LED starts
flashing.
– If the PROFICLOUD device is connected to the PC Worx software online, and you
have entered the MAC address of the AXC CLOUD-PRO in the “IP Settings” tab in
the “Device Details” window and the BootP server is also activated in PC Worx, the
DBG LED will only flash for around 10 seconds. Then the D LED is permanently on
and the RUN LED starts flashing.
– Behavior of the device LEDs when a program is present on the AXC CLOUD-PRO and
the IP address settings have been assigned:
The FAIL LED lights up briefly then the DBG LED starts flashing. When the
AXC CLOUD-PRO starts up without errors, the DBG LED goes out after around
30 seconds and the RUN and D LEDs are permanently on.
The AXC CLOUD-PRO is now fully initialized.
If the LEDs do not light up or do not start flashing, there is a serious error in the
AXC CLOUD-PRO. In this case, please contact Phoenix Contact.
The PROFINET device name is the unique identification for the device in the PROFINET
