A General
The first time the Charge Point is powered on, the system will take around 10 seconds to start up, the screen will show next image:
In the lower right corner, the firmware version is shown. After 10 seconds, the first screen that appears is the screensaver.
08

How to use it?
When tapping on the screen, the HMI will skip to the next one:
Here the Charge Point is asking to show the identification card or touch the screen. The first option, show the identification card, is the option that will allow to start a `Charging session' or to stop an ongoing `Charging session'. The second option, touch the screen, is meant to get information about the connectors status and the charging process so as to know the Charge Point availability. However, a `Charging session' cannot be started or do any action over the currently charging session unless an authorised identification card is shown.
09

Master/Slave Instruction Manual
B Language
During all the process is possible to change language, pressing on the top of the screen over the `Flag' touch symbol:
The language can be chosen by tapping on the corresponding flag.
The availability of the different languages is subject to the firmware version. In case of doubt, please consult your local supplier. 10

C Start charging
Once the identification card is shown, it may take a few seconds to authorise the access.
The HMI informs if the access is granted or not.
11

Master/Slave Instruction Manual If the user is authorised, the connector can be chosen.
At any time it is possible to tap this button in order to go back to the "identification screen".
Once the connector is chosen, instruction screens will appear successively. 1- Connect your vehicle and press the `Start' button
At any time is possible to tap this button in order to go back to the previous screen.

68

D Checkup
After applying new settings, please go to next URL from Charge Point in order to check properly connection from the integration chosen: http://<IP>/services/cpi/log?app=ocpp1.5 Look especially for the following messages:
If `CB boot notification: success' appears then Charge Point is properly connected to the back-end. Otherwise, if the message shown is `Registering CB in the CS: failed' then check following items: - Backend URL. Case sensitive. Check all the URL is correct. - Charge Point ID. Case sensitive. Check if the name entered is same as backend expects to receive. - Connectivity. Check if modem is power up and connected to the HMI screen. Ask to the backend provider if any request has been received from the charge point (BootNotification, StatusNotification or HeartBeat) after upgrading.

A Introduction
The goal of the Open Charge Point Protocol (OCPP) is to offer a uniform solution for the communication between Charge Point and a Central System. With this open protocol it is possible to connect any Central System with any Charge Point, regardless of the vendor. Follow next steps in order to configure OCPP 1.6 in the Circontrol Charge Points.
70

OCPP 1.6
B Before starting
Check following steps in order to ensure the correct function of OCPP 1.6: Go to the Setup Webpage > `Network' tab Public Address Manager establishes where the Charge Point must obtain the public IP address in order to send it later to the backend. Different values can be selected in the `Address Type' section:
Choose the option selected under `Address Type' according to your network topology. When done, please do not forget to save changes using `Save' button in the upper right bar:
71

Master/Slave Instruction Manual Go to the Setup Webpage > `Integrations' tab Charge Point supports different versions of OCPP but only one can be enabled at the same time. Go back to setup web page and click on the `Integrations' tab, choose the option selected under `Available integrations' according to your backend policies as shown in the picture:
NOTE: Charge Point is working as stand-alone if `none' option is selected. All ID cards are authorized to start/stop a new charge transaction and no requests are sent to the backend.
License required, refer to the next chapter for more information about the activation.
72

C License activation
If the Charge Point does not have the license applied, the following message pops up:
To obtain the license file please contact CIRCONTROL Post Sales Department. More information in `Need help?' chapter. The license can be applied by clicking on the `Select File' button.
73

Master/Slave Instruction Manual A window will pop up in order to choose the file, then click on `upload'.
74

D Configuration
Go to the Setup Webpage > `Integrations' tab Once OCPP 1.6 option is selected, a link appears allowing access to the OCPP configuration. Please, click on the link button as shown in the picture:
New tabs are opened to show OCPP Settings. It can also be accessed directly typing: http://<IP>:8080/html/setup.html First time is running the integration selected on the Charge Point, it starts as configuration mode and all fields are empty. Settings are always stored even when the Charge Point is powered off or even the integration is disabled/stopped.

SCADA Client
The IP address assigned previously, is useful to connect with the Charge Point in order to monitor the real-time status. The main way to connect is using the CirCarLife client software (Supplied by Circontrol PS-Support staff) or you can download it from Circontrol Expert Area Webpage. NOTE: Java software needs to be installed on your computer in order to run the client software, please, download last version from: www.java.com
In remote connections, where is required communicate via 3G/4G data with the Charge point in order to monitor its parameters, it should be noted that there will be a HIGH consumption of data.
