broker, later assignment and evaluation of the published data is facilitated if the names refer
to the process data of the stations.
Example:
You would like to name a group or topic "Motor5" and assign the name "Station1" to the
station. In this case, the following entry, for example, would be suitable for the topic name or
group name:

Profile
The settings that you configure for the cloud access of the gateway are stored in a profile.
This will make it easier to use the device for different scenarios. Individual settings for

the configuration every time you change the cloud.
Previously configured profiles are available in the "Profiles" drop-down list.
You select the connected cloud for each profile via the "Cloud provider" drop-down list.
Selecting a cloud provider has the effect that certain parameters are preset, shown or hidden
according to the different requirements of the respective cloud.
