2.3 Product description
The charge controller primarily controls the charging process of an electric vehicle and monitors the internal
hardware of charging systems such as the meter, the user interface module or the socket-outlet. It can
be operated as an "always-on system" that is always connected to a mobile network. The master variant
supports 4G mobile networks.
Communication with a backend system is possible via the OCPP application protocol. All specied messages
in OCPP are supported as well as some vendor-specic extensions based on the DataTransfer message.
Integration tests with the backend implementations of providers (e.g. has-to-be, Virta and NewMotion) have
been carried out successfully. See chapter "Ordering information".
2.4 Functional description
The charging system consists of an RCD type A and a contactor. These are directly connected to a type 1 or
type 2 socket-outlet, or to a permanently mounted cable with a type 1 or type 2 plug (see chapter "Wiring
diagram").
2.5 General functions (depending on the variant)
•
The charging system can be equipped with a meter. A Modbus meter is required to digitally read the
energy consumption. The Modbus RTU lines are attached directly to the device.
•
A 12 V power supply is needed for operation.
•
An RFID module can be used for easy user interaction.
•
Current ow toward the vehicle is released by enabling the contactor via an integrated 230 V control relay
in the charge controller.
•
Using a micro SIM card (not included in the scope of delivery):
The SIM card slot (available on data gateways with a 4G modem only) is located on the charge controller
front panel. The SIM card can have a PIN number which can be congured via the Operator tab. The APN
settings for the SIM card can also be congured via the Operator tab.
•
Data gateways with a 4G modem feature a connection for a 4G antenna on the front panel.
•
For residual current detection in an AC charging system, the charge controller features an integrated
residual direct current monitoring module (RDC-M) which uses an externally connected measuring current
transformer. With integrated monitoring of the DC residual current, only an RCD type A is required in the
charging system.
•
Data exchange between the electric vehicle and the charging system is possible via ISO 15118-compliant
Powerline Communication (PLC).
