7.3 DLM AUTOSTART VERSION
7.3.1 INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION OF THE ENERGY METER
The use of the operating mode called DLM requires the pre-arrangement of the electrical system as indicated below. If this is not done, this mode cannot be used.
The first requirement is the presence of an energy meter (code GWD6812 or GWD6817) in the electrical system.
This device must be installed downstream of the main switch (usually a residual current circuit breaker) and upstream of all the various circuit breaker protections installed in order to measure all domestic loads.

GEWISS I-CON Premium Wall Box - DLM AUTOSTART VERSION

Once it is installed and powered, it is necessary to set 2 energy meter parameters so it can communicate correctly with the charging station.
The parameters available are:
– NODE SERIAL ADDRESS → parameter P-20 → must be set to 2
– SERIAL SPEED → parameter P-21 → must be set to 38400
Refer to the energy meter manual to set these parameters.

7.3.2 CONNECTION OF THE RS485 DATA LINE

The second requirement necessary in order to use the DLM operating mode is to connect the RS485 data line between the energy meter and the charging station. Refer to the instructions contained in the GWD6812 or GWD6817 energy meter for the correct connection of the cable to the device terminals.
The charging station is provided with a double fixing terminal in the bottom right area.

GEWISS I-CON Premium Wall Box - necessary

In order to make the connection correctly, it is necessary to comply with the following recommendations:
– Use a BELDEN 3105A cable.
– It is recommended to maintain a distance of approx. 100 m between the charging station and the external energy meter. It is however possible to exceed this limit in relation to the type of system and being careful to respect the intrinsic limitations of the RS485 connection.
– It is necessary to guarantee the absence of disturbances to guarantee correct communication
– It is also necessary to insert the termination resistance of 120 Ohm on the serial line in order to minimise the reflections, which is important for high bitrates and long cable distances.

7.3.3 CLEAN CONTACT CONNECTION
The station has a clean contact to remotely control some actions.
To ensure that is operates correctly, the following must be observed
– Short circuit current: 10mA
– Cable section: 1mm2
– Managed statuses: terminals short circuiting or terminals open
– Max. distance: 50mt
NOTE= the signal cable used must be free of disturbances from the power line.

APP AND CHARGING STATION CONNECTION

The PREMIUM charging stations equipped with DLM functionality have Bluetooth Low Energy connectivity (hereafter BLE) which makes it possible to use the mobile “I-CON MANAGER” APP, which is needed to perform the phases of setting the station,  updating the firmware and displaying the charge log.
The setting options vary depending on the charging station model.
The starting point for the use of these functions is to have completed the association between the station and the APP (also called pairing).

8.1. DOWNLOAD “I-CON MANAGER” APP
Download the app from the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store

OPERATION AND CHARACTERISTICS

The premium I-CON range is comprised of various operating modes, which are explained below.
9.1 DLM AUTOSTART
The DLM AUTOSTART charging stations are able to manage 2 different charging modes.
The first is called ECO and the second DLM.
One mode excludes the other, but it is possible to vary the configuration as needed. Remember that for the DLM operating mode, there must be a specific energy meter connected to the station as indicated in chapters 6, 7.2.3 and 7.2.4.
The simplified ECO mode is set by default on the charging station.

9.1.1 ECO OPERATING MODE
This mode is set by default on the charging station and the charging power is the nominal one associated with the GWJ code of reference.
The user may customise this mode by varying the charging power, selecting from among a set of available values, and/or indicate a time range within which charging will be managed (outside of the set time range, it will be suspended or ended).

9.1.2 DLM OPERATING MODE
This mode must be set specifically by the customer/installer, thereby replacing the default ECO mode. With this mode, after setting some parameters related to the system, the charging power will be managed autonomously by the charging station based on domestic consumption.
If domestic consumption increases, the charging power is reduced until it is suspended. When domestic consumption is reduced, the power can increase.

ATTENTION: in order to avoid unpleasant disconnections of the domestic meter, the logic applied to managing the power is precautionary.
In order to cover all the needs and charging modes for the car, the minimum current needed for charging is 8A for stations with a single-phase power supply and 13A for stations with a three-phase power supply. Remember that for the DLM operating mode, there must be a specific energy meter connected to the station as indicated in chapters 6, 7.2.3 and 7.2.4.

9.2 RFID
RFID mode indicates that the session has to be activated and terminated using the RFID cards supplied by the provider and added to the local station White List beforehand.
9.3 CLOUD OCPP
CLOUD mode indicates that the charging station is connected to a control and management platform. Thanks to this platform, the station can be controlled and monitored while it’s operating, and the recharging sessions can be saved. The end user accesses the service via an app or using RFID cards associated with his/her own profile, in complete autonomy.

GRAPHIC INTERFACE OPERATION

The premium I-CON stations have a graphic interface comprised of a LED matrix display, touch push-buttons and luminous symbols. Details are provided below.

If the menu is exited due to the timeout, the changes made will be deleted. The station closes the menu automatically after 1 minute of inactivity, deleting any settings that were made

10.1 INTERNAL MENU
The premium I-CON charging stations have a contextual menu that appears when pressing the symbol .
The menu structure differs depending on the type of charging station and the operating mode.
All menu items are displayed for charging stations with the DLM AUTOSTART operating mode, considering the private use of the station. For the other operating modes, such as RFID and CLOUD OCPP, considering that the menu can be accessed by everyone, only some items are visible. The remaining “hidden” items can be accessed using the MASTER card in order to limit access to sensitive settings only for authorised personnel.

The menu structure in the various modes is shown below

GEWISS I-CON Premium Wall Box - Symbol 10

NOTE (*)= only one of these menus is displayed and depends on the selection made for the OPERATING MODE.

STATUS INDICATORS

The charging station uses RGB LEDs and the display to inform the client about the status and indicate which actions need to be carried out. The status indication (READY, CHARGING, ERROR) is also provided in the “I-CON MANAGER” APP (if it is near the charging station and the devices are connected with each other).

GEWISS I-CON Premium Wall Box - charging station

The meanings of the various colours are explained below.

CHARGING PROCESS

The various operating modes of the premium I-CON premium charging station involve a different approach to the charging process.
An explanation is provided below of how the charging process changes according to the operating mode.
12.1 DLM AUTOSTART OPERATING MODE
12.1.1 VEHICLE CHARGE IN ECO MODE
As indicated in chapter 9, the ECO mode is set by default.
In order to customise the charging mode, the “I-CON MANAGER” APP must be used or access the graphic interface in order to:

  1. Select a charging range to be used
  2. Set a time range for vehicle charging  It is necessary to set a time range for charging.

To enable a recharging session:
METHOD 1

| Action to be carried out| RGB LED status

---|---|---
1| Make sure there are no errors on the charging station| Fixed green
2| Insert the charging plug in the socket-outlet of the station, and in the vehicle or
Connect the mobile connector to the vehicle.| Fixed green
3 A| If a time range is set for enabling the charging, the station will remain in stand-by until the set time is reached| Flashing blue
3B| If a time range is not set for enabling charging, the station will immediately manage the communication with the vehicle| Flashing blue or
Fixed blue
4| The vehicle requests energy from the recharging station| Fixed blue
5| Charging session in progress but car battery charged| Flashing blue
6A| The charging session was not interrupted by the customer before the end of the set time, therefore it was ended directly by the charging station| Flashing green
6B| The charging session was ended by the customer by disconnecting the cable from the vehicle| Flashing green
7| If the station detects no errors, it will return to standby| Fixed green

NOTE= To end the charging session, stop it first on the vehicle (the method will change depending on the vehicle model. we suggest you refer to the manual of your vehicle to find the right method). The cable can now be removed from the vehicle, terminating the charging operation. The station will now allow you to remove the plug.
The following correspondence table indicates the charging power values used by the station and that can be set using the APP or the graphic interface

12.1.2 VEHICLE CHARGE IN DLM MODE
This charging mode can be set using the “I-CON MANAGER” APP or on the graphic interface and completing the configuration in order to:

  1. Determine the type of energy meter installed upstream.
  2. Set the limit power of your domestic system

As already indicated in the previous chapters, an energy meter (code GWD6812 or GWD6817) must be installed upstream of the electrical system and it must be connected to the charging station via the RS485 line
The presence of the external energy meter connected to the charging station and the indication of the system variables allow the station to manage charging in a completely autonomous manner, varying the power based on the trend of the domestic electrical consumption, thereby optimising charging as much as possible.

NOTE= for 4.6 and 7.4kW single-phase stations, it is only possible to associate the single-phase energy meter GWD6812 to ensure that the setting related to system power is congruous. The same also applies for 11kW three phase versions, where it will only be possible to associate the three-phase energy meter GWD6817.
To enable a recharging session:

1 Make sure there are no errors on the charging station Fixed green
2 Insert the charging plug in the socket-outlet of the station, and in the

vehicle or

12.3 CLOUD OCPP OPERATING MODE
In this mode, the charging station is connected to a control platform via the OCPP protocol. The OCPP protocol allows the station to connect to any platform which uses that protocol. To take advantage of this mode, a specific parameter configuration is needed in order to create correct station-platform communication. The use of connected solutions allows access to a series of advanced options that give both the end user and the owner better access to the service. The end user can use the JOINON app or a similar expedient to find the nearest recharging station and access the service by following the instructions given. The station owner can monitor the status of the station and the consumption level from remote and in real time.

CLEAN CONTACT CONNECTION

The charging station has a clean contact that can be used by external devices to check the charging station, intervening in the current charging process.

CHARGE POWER REDUCTION BASED ON THE INTERNAL TEMPERATURE

The charging station has an internal temperature sensor. Based on the internal temperatures detected, which are influenced by the environmental conditions and the state of the charging station (stand-by, charging or error), the charging power can be decreased in order to protect the integrity and operation of the internal components.
For example, charging at 22kW, if the internal temperature exceeds the set threshold, is decreased to 11kW until the internal temperatures detected do not return below the set limits.

FAULTS AND TROUBLESHOOTING

The station codifies the errors found by the electronic board and saves them in the internal log.
The log files are saved on the microSD card on the electronic board. These files need to be analysed in order to find the cause of the problem.
The errors that might be detected by the charging station are listed below

Error code Description Solution
Error 4 The contactor is working when it shouldn’t be. The Type 2 socket-
outlet is powered in the standby condition Check the signal from the

electronic board to the contactor, to make sure the former isn’t controlling the latter. If the board isn’t controlling the contactor, make sure the contactor contacts aren’t jammed. If necessary, replace the device
Error 8| The external energy meter (installed and connected to the station for the DLM operating mode) or the intimal one does not communicate with the station| Check the Modbus line connection
Check the power supply to the energy meters Make sure the energy meters are working properly Make sure the component on the Modbus line is numbered correctly
Error 13| DC current detected on return line from the vehicle| In this situation, the charging session is immediately suspended. Remove the recharging cable from the vehicle and wait to begin a new session.
If the problem persists, contact the manufacturer of the vehicle
Error 14| Short-circuit detected on the CP signal| The station detects a short-circuit between the CP signal and earth.
Remove the cable and try again.
If the error persists, replace the cable.
Error 15| The load connected is not suitable for recharging| If a vehicle has been connected but the problem persists, contact the manufacturer of the vehicle.

MODIFYING THE OPERATING PARAMETERS OF THE RECHARGING STATION

Once the product has been installed, certain station operating parameters can be modified via a text file to be saved on the microSD card inserted in the charging station itself.
Use a computer to create a text file renamed “config.ini”, where you can insert the parameters you want to modify. The parameters must be added as indicated below.
The parameters that can be modified are:

Function description| Name of the parameter to be used| Available options, and examples
---|---|---
Maximum input current| MAXAMPEREAVAILABLE| The input current set in the factory can be altered to suit the real availability and avoid problems during recharging. To do this, use the MAXAMPEREAVAILABLE parameter
Example MAXAMPEREAVAILABLE=32
current Maximum recharging| AMPERESOCKET SX| It is possible to define a recharging current different from the one set in the factory. To do this, use the AM-PERESOCKET_SX parameter
Example AMPERESOCKET_SX=10
Date and time| DATETIME| If the station date is wrong, it can be updated using the DATETIME value. The format is YYYY/MM/DD- hh: mm
Example DATETIME=2021/01/31-14:00
LOG level| LOGLEVEL| The LOG level saved by the recharging station on the microSD card can be modified using the LOGLEVEL parameter. There are 2 options: 3 (limited wordiness) or 4 (high degree of wordiness)
Example LOGLEVEL=3

DISCONNECTING FROM THE MAINS SUPPLY

This section describes the procedure for disconnecting the device from the mains network. If you want to work inside the device (qualified personnel only), interventions must first be made on the protection elements upstream of the line (both for the power level part and the power supply to the electronic board).
