Introduction

The Charge Point can be configured and monitorized to establish preferences or specific setup using integrated Ethernet communication port allocated in the main controller device.

What’s needed

Before proceeding with the configuration, make sure all the following is ready:

Computer running Microsoft Windows, at least Windows XP .

UTP Cable (Crossover recommended)

IPSetup.exe (Software provided by Circontrol)

How to conﬁgure it?

Charge Point is delivered with default network setting of “DHCP enabled”. It means that the charge station will try to obtain an IP address from a DHCP server available on the network.

Connecting a PC directly with the Charge Point needs to be done with static IP address. The PC and the Charge Point must be in the same network and in the same range.

Connection

In order to change the IP of the Charge Point, use “IP Setup”.

• Enter the MAC of the device

• Enter the desired IP Address

• Click on “Configure”
