7.5 Charging the vehicle
Warning
Risk of injury due to incorrect handling!
Using an extension cable or second charging cable may
result in electric shock or cable fire. Using extension cables
is not permitted.
Never use more than one charging cable for
connection the electric vehicle to the charging station.
Use only undamaged charging cables.
Depending on the configuration, charging is possible with or
without authorisation.
7.5.1 Charging without authorisation
If the charging station was configured during the setting-up
process that no authorisation is required, the charging
process starts automatically after connecting the charging
cable to the vehicle.
7.5.2 Authorisation with RFID
For RFID authorization, prior once-off registration of the
user's RFID card at the charging station is required. The
charging station can manage up to 100 RFID cards (2x
master, 98x users) in an internal database (whitelist).
Two ways are possible for managing the RFID card:
Independent operation without Charge APP:
The operator of the charging station is authorised by his
master RFID card to add new RFID cards to the internal
database.
Managing RFID cards over the Charge APP:
In conjunction with Mennekes Charge APP, the internal
database (whitelist) is particularly convenient for RFID
authorisation. Names can be additionally assigned to
RFID card numbers in the Charge APP and the database
can be easily managed with a smart phone or tablet.
7.5.2.1
Authorisation with RFID card
Hold the RFID card against the RFID symbol on the front
panel.
While the data are verified, the symbol "wait time"
lights up on the LED info bar.
After successful authorisation, the charging station is set
to the status "operational" and you can begin charging
by connecting the charger cable.
If charging does not start within the release time of
approximately 60 seconds, the authorisation is reset and
the charging system changes to status "operational". A
new authorisation is required.
7.5.3 Authorisation with Charge APP
You can also select an RFID card from the internal database
(whitelist) for authorisation. You will need PIN 2 (whitelist
PIN, see set-up data sheet).
The charging station then responds as if you have authorised
directly at the charging station with a valid RFID card.
