Abstract: An industrial automation device with a token to be used as authentication information in information exchange between a first cloud service and the industrial automation device, a mobile device is connected to the industrial automation device and to a cloud service that is the first cloud service or a second cloud service. After authenticating the user of the mobile device to the cloud service, a token is generated by the cloud service to the first cloud service, and forwarded via the mobile device to the industrial automation device. If the cloud service that generated the token is the second cloud service, the token is forwarded via the mobile device, after the mobile has been authenticated in the first cloud service, the first cloud service. Thereafter the industrial automation device and the first cloud service may communicate directly with each other using the token for authentication.

Abstract: According to an aspect, there is provided method for commissioning a drive. First, a local network is established between a wireless computing device, one or more wireless sensor devices and a drive. Each wireless sensor device is configured to measure one or more physical quantities associated with an industrial system controlled by the drive. The wireless computing device configures wirelessly the drive and the one or more wireless sensor devices for performing measurements. In response to receiving one or more measured values from the one or more wireless sensor devices, the wireless computing device displays the information on the one or more measured values on a display for providing guidance for a user of the wireless computing device for adjusting drive parameters of the drive.
