The web visualization runs on the Web server within the respective PLC and is called
up via a Web browser in cloudPanel. Access is via the previously configured IP
address of the Ethernet channel and is called by entering this IP address in the
address bar of the Web browser. Per default, port 8080 is used for http:
http://<IP address PLC>:8080
.

The cloudPanel is connected to your PLC via Ethernet. In the cloudPanel you have to
set an IP address that is in the same IP range as the Web server.
