  1. Connect your charger's RJ45 port directly to your laptop using an Ethernet cable.

  2. Check the Charger IP address from the charger screen.

  3. Modify your computer’s Ethernet settings so it is in the same IP range (network segment) as the charger.

  11. 4G APN – Access Point Name for the mobile data network.
  12. Language Setting – Only English is currently supported.
  13. Max Output Power (e.g., 240 kW) – Limit for maximum charging output power.
  14. Charge Mode
  15. APP – For commercial use with OCPP backend control.
  16. Plug & Charge – Simple plug-in charging without backend.
  17. Default Gateway – Default route for network communication.
  18. MAC Address – Hardware address of the charger’s network interface.
  19. Wi-Fi Key (Max Length: 16) – Password for Wi-Fi connection.
    • Note: Does not support apostrophes (‘) or commas (,).

  20. Charging Rate – Configurable rate for charging sessions.
  21. 4G User Password – Password for 4G mobile network login.



To activate DHCP for automatic IP assignment, enter the charger’s admin menu by double-tapping the upper left corner of the screen, then open Network Parameters → “Net parameters”. Password is 1234.


Find DHCP and set it to 1 to activate it, or 0 to disable it.



Admin information

  • NTC Type – Choose the appropriate NTC (Negative Temperature Coefficient) sensor type.

  • Number of Connectors – Select between:

    • Single-port version

    • Dual-port version

      (Ensure correct selection to match product specification)

  • Connector 1 Type – Choose one:

    • CCS2

    • CCS1

    • NACS

    • CHAdeMO

  • Connector 2 Type – Choose second only if dual-port model is in use:

    • CCS2

    • CCS1

    • NACS

    • CHAdeMO

  • Connector 3 Type – Optional if a third port is available:

    • CCS2

    • CCS1

    • NACS

    • CHAdeMO

  • Power Module Brand – Select the correct brand/model of the power module used.

  • Power Module Max Output – Define the maximum output capacity per module (e.g., 30 kW, 40 kW).

  • Number of Power Modules – Enter the number of power modules installed.

  • Electricity Meter Type – Select the type/model of the built-in energy meter.


Firmware update – Add the firmware package and upload it to the charger. Make sure the upgrade process is fully completed before taking any further actions beyond the update itself.


RFID parameters – Add RFID cards to the charger’s whitelist to authorize offline charging. Type the card number (idtag) and push "ADD".


RFID cards can also be added directly from the charger’s screen without using the web UI. To add a card from the charge point screen, enter the admin menu by double-tapping the upper left corner of the screen. Then go to “System Parameters” (password 1234). 


Find “Card Bind”, press it, and swipe the new card on the RFID reader to bind it to the charger.


Note: if the charger will be connected to a backend, all RFID cards must be added in the backend, not directly on the charger.
