Hello Guys, 👋🏼

I have configured the connection from PLC S7 1200 to AWS IOT core using Node-Red, This configuration could possibly work with IOT 2050.💡

⛔There was a separate discussion on exchanging data between PLC and IOT Core without using Node-Red, that is connecting to AWS using Mosquitto broker bridging, it is discussed here in this thread, and the connection path is like the one showed below. This config I found little bit heavy to set-up and data received from PLC with LMQTT library is in byte format, which needs to be reformatted before sending to database.

Connection Path - MQTT bridge

PLC >>> Mosquitto-broker>>>AWS IOT Core

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

✅But later I have I have configured with Node-Red and I found that it is more convenient since the set-up is less complicated and the data we can collect from the PLC can be multiple type.

Connection Path - via Node-Red

PLC>>>[Node-Red(s7-Node>>MQTT-OUT]>>>AWS IOT Core>>>DynamoDB

Here is the Node-Red flow

And in this case the TLS encryption is also find easy to set up from node-red to IOT core,

Hope this would help someone,

Thnx for your reply apastore

Would you mind sharing your nodeRED Flow with us here to further be able to inspect your JS code?

 Sure, ✌🏼

Here is my flow.json file, hope you share your feedback 🚀🚀🚀
