contain a start time and length.
Charging session:
A Charging Session is started when rst interaction with user or EV occurs. This can be
a card swipe, remote start transaction, connection of cable and/or EV, parking bay
occupancy detector, etc.
Identication:
Procedure for the EV charging controller or USER to provide its identifying information
for the purpose of authorisation, mostly to provide its capability for payments.
Locking mechanism:
A mechanical mean that prevents from intentional and unintentional disconnection
under load of the vehicle connector and/or plug.
Plug:
Accessory having contacts designed to engage with the contacts of a socket-outlet,
also incorporating means for the electrical connection and mechanical retention of
exible cables or cords.

MAIN FEATURES OF THE UNIT
Charge Point may not include elements of electrical protection.
• Display: Information about
the status of the connectors
and detailed data as kWh
and duration time.
• Connector Lock: Type 2
connector has a lock system
to avoid disconnection of EV
meanwhile is charging.
• Light beacon: RGB led
indicates the status of the
connectors.
• RFID: User authentication.
• Ethernet:
• Wi-Fi connection: To avoid
using Ethernet cable.
• 4G Modem (optional): For
those places where wired
communications are not
sufcient.
• Energy metering: Integrated
meter built is measuring
power and energy consumed
by the EV during a charge
transaction.
• Remote access: For
supervision and control from
everywhere.
• Chargetransactionhistorics:
Charge Point is capable of
storing information about the
charge transactions.
• OCPP: Open standard
communication protocol,
allows communication
between the Charge Point
and the Central System.

2. Plug the cable to the vehicle, choose one available socket (in case
there are more than one) and plug the cable to the Charge Point.
Once done, the Display shows the following message:

The eVolve Smart is capable of detecting the following operating errors.
All of them will be displayed with a specic number of red light blinks:
- D state Error
- E state Error
- Proximity Error
- Negative PWM voltage Error
- Non-current selected Error (Dip-Switch)
- Welded contact Error
- Locking System Error
- Communication Error
- No input voltage Error
- Maximum temperature Error
- Minimum temperature Error
Whatever the error case is, the Charge Point will stop charging and
technical assistance will be required, except from the temperature errors.
In this last case, the Charge Point starts charging when the operating
temperature is reached again.
In the following sections it will be explained how the eVolve indicates the
above mentioned errors and the actions taken by the Charge Point.
1 — D STATE ERROR
In some old EVs, this state means that there are some gases coming out
from the batteries. So, an external ventilation in the car park might be
required. If this is the case, the status LED bar ashes permanently.

Status LED beacons’ errors
2 Blink Sequence
2 — E STATE ERROR
This means that there has occurred a communication error between the
EV and the Charge Point. If this is the case, the status LED light bar ashes
in a sequence of two blinks.
3 — PROXIMITY ERROR
When the Charge Point is connected to the EV, a Proximity short-circuit to
earth may occur. The, the status LED light bar turns ashes in a sequence
of three blinks.
4 — NEGATIVE PWM VOLTAGE ERROR
When the Charge Point is connected to the EV, the PWM signal, used to
communicate the Charge Point with the EV, can be negative. Then, the
status LED light bar ashes in a sequence of four blinks.
5 — NON-CURRENT SELECTION ERROR (DIP-SWITCH)
If the on-board current limit selection is not set up according to the
hardware features, the Charge Point detects it and shows this error. In this
case, the status LED light bar ashes in a sequence of six blinks.

6 — WELDED CONTACT ERROR
An internal short-circuit has been detected. In this case, the status LED
light bar ashes in a sequence of seven blinks.
7 — LOCKING SYSYEM ERROR
This may occur if the connector is not properly connected to the socket-
outlet. In this case, the status LED light bar ashes in a sequence of eight
blinks.
8 — COMMUNICATION ERROR
This means that there has occurred a communication error. If this is the
case, the status LED light bar ashes in a sequence of nine blinks.
9 — NO INPUT VOLTAGE ERROR
This means that there is not input voltage going throw the Mode 3 PCB. If
this is the case, the status LED light bar ashes in a sequence of ten blinks.
