Get Started
- Check the EV charging station before use. Do not use the EV charging station if damaged!
- Socket will provide a high voltage (230/400 V)!
- Never draw more than the maximum specified charging current from the EV charging station!
- Do not use the EV charging station if the socket and plug are wet.
- Only connect undamaged, designated, and labelled plugs & cables to the EV charging station.
- Avoid using multiple adapter/power strips as they can lead to overload.
- Don't unplug during the charging process.
- Always operate in the specified order of steps.
When no electric vehicle is connected, the blue LED STATUS O-ring around the station's black push button(s) glows constantly, indicating standby/ready status. When you plug in the vehicle, the STATUS LED O-ring starts blinking slowly, meaning the vehicle is charging. When your electric vehicle is fully charged, the LED O-ring glows constantly again.
If a hardwired or wireless Metron Dynamic Power Control system is installed, the charging power is dynamically controlled to prevent blowing main house fuses and not surpass the grid power draw limit agreed with the grid operator/electricity supplier. This system also smartly takes into account the solar/wind/hydro power plant if the house has one installed (see chapter "METRON Hardwired or Wireless Dynamic Power Control" for more info). You can also use the built-in Metron Charge Control app and/or cloud-based Metron Device Access app to set charging power, monitor charging & house & solar power & energy, set scheduled charging, activate solar SURPLUS charging, and much more (see chapter "Local WiFi METRON Charge Control app and internet based Metron Device Access app" for more info).
If the station is configured such that authorization is needed for charging start, the STATUS LED O-ring blinks briefly every 2 seconds. After successful authorization (RFID, AutoCharge, OCPP backend, Metron Charge Control app, etc.), the STATUS LED O-ring behaves normally.
Setting the Desired Charging Current / Power without WiFi Connection
METRON EV charging stations allow users to set the desired charging current/power before plugging in the electric vehicle. The procedure is simple:
- Press and hold the push button: The blue STATUS LED O-ring switches off immediately.
- After 5 seconds, the blue STATUS LED O-ring starts blinking slowly.
- Releasing the push button after a certain number of blue LED O-ring blinks determines the charging current/power as follows:
Applies to all station versions!

New charging current/power setting is stored in the memory and remains the same (even after the power supply is not present anymore) until the next setting change is performed.
Remote Charge Port Open & Plug Unlock for Tesla Electric Vehicles
Metron charging stations with built-in charging cables can be equipped with TESLA remote charge port open & plug unlock electronics. Pressing a "2-function" button on the vehicle Type 2 plug sends a remote-control signal to your TESLA vehicle charge port, which then opens. The signal range is usually between 3 and 15 meters. This feature eliminates the need for the user to touch the smartphone or Tesla central screen to open the charge port. The remote-control signal also wakes up the Tesla vehicle from sleep; sometimes the button needs to be pressed several times to wake up the vehicle.
To unplug while still charging or when charging is completed, press and hold the "2-function" button for a second. The car will unlock the vehicle plug (only if the car is unlocked/owner nearby!) and then you can unplug it. The plug unlock function works even if the charging station is not powered (manually turned off, grid power outage, etc.).
This feature once again eliminates the need for the user to touch the smartphone or Tesla central screen to unlock the charging plug from the Tesla charge port.

Local WiFi METRON Charge Control App and Internet Based Metron Device Access App
Each "+" marked Smart EV charging station features a built-in WiFi access point with the preloaded Metron Charge Control App (web server), allowing installers and users to connect locally using a smartphone, tablet, or PC – no additional app installation required & no internet access required. Additionally, when the Smart EV charging station is connected to the internet via WiFi, users gain access to a second web-based application – Metron Device Access. This cloud-based (Metron HUB) platform can be accessed over the internet from anywhere.
Using the Metron Charge Control app and Metron Device Access app, users can:
- Set the desired charging current, limit charging energy, set weekly scheduled charging.
- Turn on/off solar SURPLUS charging if a solar power plant is installed.
- See all measurements of charging power, charging current, and charging energy.
- Perform OTA (over-the-air) installation of UPDATES for application firmware.
- Set system parameters (Charge Control app only).
- If METRON Dynamic EV Charging for house main fuse protection is installed, the user can also see house load, house energy consumption, solar power, and solar energy production.
To connect to the WiFi METRON Charge Control application, you need to do the following:
- Connect the charging station to power, go to the WiFi menu on your smartphone/tablet/PC, and search for WiFi networks.
- Find "METRON Station 1" (default) network and connect to it; enter the WiFi password 12345678.
- Scan the QR code found on the station and follow the link (it will open your default web browser and launch the Metron Charge Control automatically); OR open your favorite web browser and type in the following IP address: http://192.168.4.4 -> The METRON Charge Control application will be loaded immediately.
For accessing the Metron Device Access cloud-based app, you need to connect to the Charge Control app, enter the "Settings" menu, and connect the smart portable charger to a local WiFi network with internet access. After that, the Smart EV charging station starts communicating with Metron HUB cloud, and the Metron Device Access app becomes accessible via the following internet address: https://metron-app.eu/<controller serial number> (the link is shown in the Charge Control app). The default user access password is "12345678" (it is recommended to change it).
The METRON Charge Control and Metron Device Access applications are intuitive and usually do not need more instructions to be used; just browse and explore the functions. Where additional user information is required, important user instructions are explained under "notes". If you do not understand something, please feel free to contact Metron.
NOTE: If you changed the Charge Control WiFi password and forgot it, you need to do the following to reset it to default:
- Disconnect the station from power, press the "Push Button", and keep it pressed.
- Connect the station to power. The blue STATUS LED O-ring starts blinking 2 times.
- After 30 seconds, the blue STATUS LED O-ring will turn on for 3 seconds and then turn off.
- Release the "Push Button", and the WiFi name (ssid) & password are reset to default values.

METRON Hardwired and Wireless Dynamic Power Control (SMART "+" Charging Stations Only)
Smart "+" marked EV charging stations can be equipped with Hardwired (1 station per main fuse) or Wireless Dynamic Power Control system (up to 150 charging stations per main fuse). This system constantly monitors the load at the house main fuse using electric current sensors and dynamically adjusts (lowering or rising) the charging current/power of your electric vehicle in a way that the main house fuse never gets overloaded (never blows-up) and the grid power draw limit is not exceeded. If the house has a solar (or wind/hydro) power plant installed, this system allows higher current/power charging than would be allowed by the main fuse and also enables the possibility of user-activated solar SURPLUS charging, which means the vehicle will be charged only with excess solar power without taking any energy from the grid. METRON Wireless Dynamic Power Control system is designed to work with 1-phase and 3-phase power systems. In short, the METRON Dynamic Power Control system enables users to charge their electric vehicle without worrying about the load other household appliances might draw from the in-house grid.
For 1-station Hardwired Dynamic Power Control, the installer needs only to place clamp-on current sensors on the main house power inlet and solar power plant (if present). In case of dynamically controlling 2 or more charging stations, this can be done wirelessly only, as this greatly reduces cabling and thus cost. For METRON Wireless Dynamic Power Control, all you need is 1 pc METRON Dynamic EV Charging Unit (models 3FD-3 & 3FD-3.1) with clamp-on current sensors. This way, up to 150 Metron wall-mounted, floor-mounted, or even METRON smart portable EV charging stations can be controlled; main fuses with rated currents up to 1000A and grid power draw limits up to 700 kW are supported.
Note: Wireless signal has an open-air space range of 500m with a built-in antenna and up to 2000m with additional antennas on the METRON Dynamic EV Charging Unit (models 3FD-3 & 3FD-3.1). If the system is installed within one house, usually no additional antenna is needed.

Detailed schematics for installing the METRON Dynamic Power Control system are located in a separate installation manual, intended for qualified installers only.
MODBUS TCP/IP Communication
Smart "+" marked EV charging stations support the Modbus TCP/IP communication protocol, which enables third-party home automation systems to monitor and control each charging station connected to the local WiFi network. A Modbus MASTER device can read real-time charging power, current, voltage, and charging energy information from the portable charger and also set the charging current. The needed Metron MODBUS TCP/IP REGISTER TABLE is available for download from the Metron web shop/site.

What is RCCB and How Does it Work?
RCCB is an acronym for Residual Current Circuit Breaker; sometimes it can be called also Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker or Safety Switch. Its purpose is to prevent you from getting a fatal electric shock if you touch a live part, such as a bare copper wire under high voltage. RCCBs offer a level of personal protection that ordinary fuses/circuit-breakers cannot provide. RCCB constantly monitors the electric current flowing through one or more circuits which it protects. If it detects electricity flowing down an unintended path, such as through a person who has touched a live part, the RCCB will switch the circuit off very quickly, significantly reducing the risk of death or serious injury. Every charging station has an integrated Type A 30mA AC + 6mA DC or Type B RCCB, which ensures the maximum possible level of personal protection as it protects users from AC, pulsating DC, and pure DC leakage currents.
