Operating instructions – AC SMART
Connection via Modbus TCP (LAN)
The EV charging boxes in the AC SMART product family can be connected
to an external device via interfaces X2 or X3. Upon delivery, the Modbus TCP
interfaceisconguredasfollows:
Ethernet interface 100Base-TX according to IEEE 802.3u /
10Base-T according to IEEE 802.3
Connection type RJ45 socket /Ethernet
Protocol Modbus TCP
Transfer rate 10/100 Mbit/s
Max. cable length 100 m
Recommended cable CAT-6
DHCP is deactivated upon delivery. The charging controller is accessible as
follows.
IP address 192.168.0.8
Port 502
Address 255
Also observe the Modbus register. The tables are available on the Weidmüller
website.
Connection via Modbus TCP (WLAN)
To use the Modbus TCP interface via WLAN, the EV charging box must be
connected to a WLAN network, see Chapter 9.3
► Start the web server of the EV charging box.
► Click Cong/General.
► Change the desired function (Modbus TCP).
► Click Save.
The change is adopted the next time the EV charging box is restarted.
► Click Restart.
Connection via Modbus RTU
The EV charging boxes in the AC SMART product family can be connected
via interfaces X5.1 and X5.2 on the control board in the housing cover in a
Modbus RTU network (RS485). Upon delivery, the Modbus RTU interface is
conguredasfollows:
Address 100
Speed 19200
Parity None
In the VALUE and ADVANCED product lines, the RTU interface has a switch-
able terminating resistor. The terminating resistor is activated as a default.
► Connect the external device to the Modbus RTU interface (X5.1 and X5.2)
of the control board in the housing cover
► Start the web server, see Chapter 9.3.
► Click Cong/Modbus RTU server.
