Installation manual — MENNEKES AMTRON Professional

This quick guide refers to the original user manuals.
It serves as an installation aid for qualified electricians in the area of communication interfaces, but is not a substitute for studying the user manuals.

3.1. Ethernet connection

Once the charging station has been installed, it must be connected to the customer network via the "retrofit kit (USB Ethernet adapter)". To do this, connect the retrofit kit to the charging station via the USB port of the ECU (1) and the customer network to the retrofit kit (2) via the Ethernet port.

Figure 1. Retrofit kit for Ethernet connection

3.2. Configuration

After connection to the customer network, the wallbox is assigned an IP address using DHCP. This IP address must be determined in the DHCP server, e. g. the router.

To be able to reach the wallbox via its IP address, your computer must be in the same network. Open an internet browser and enter the IP address determined.

Example: "http://123.123.123.123"

After entering your login data (included in the scope of delivery), a website opens that looks like this:

A wide range of settings can be made via the web interface.

Figure 3. Load management

Under the "LOAD MANAGEMENT" button (1), the "Modbus TCP Server" setting (2) must be set to "On" to enable communication between the charging station and the FEMS.

Figure 4. Firmware update

To ensure that all new functions of the charging station can be used, we recommend always using the latest firmware. Under the "SYSTEM" button (1), a firmware update file can be uploaded and installed using the "Select file" button (2).

The configuration is now complete.
