Canceling the emergency stop state
Note
Eliminate the hazardous situation
First eliminate the hazardous situation. Only then can the emergency stop state be canceled.
The Emergency Stop switch is equipped with a rotate-to-unlatch mechanism. An arrow on the
top of the button indicates the direction of rotation for unlatching. Instructions are also
shown on the display.
Unlatching the Emergency Stop button
To cancel the emergency stop state, proceed as follows:
•Turn the Emergency Stop switch in the direction of the arrow until it is released.
The charging station will automatically start to return to readiness for charging. This may take
a few minutes. The LED strips signal this process and light up in white. After a successful self-
check, the LEDs light up green. The start menu is shown on the display. The charging station
is back in normal operating mode.
Misuse of the switch
To prevent repeated pressing of the switch (misuse) and thus the failure of the charging
station without a safety-relevant reason, a wait period is introduced when the switch is
pressed before the charging station is ready for charging again. The time between repeated
pressing and the wait period can be individually configured in the Siemens Configuration
Backend (see section Siemens Configuration Backend (Page 38)).

2.5 Industrial Security
SICHARGE D
Operating Instructions, 02/2021, 8EM5907-0AA00-1AA7.01 17
2.5 Industrial Security
SIEMENS AG provides products and solutions with industrial security functions that support
the secure operation of plants, systems, machines and networks.
Implement and maintain the industrial security concept
In order to protect plants, systems, machines and networks against cyber threats, it is
necessary to implement – and continuously maintain – a holistic, state-of-the-art industrial
security concept. Siemens’ products and solutions constitute one element of such a concept.
Customers are responsible for preventing unauthorized access to their plants, systems,
machines and networks. This includes replacing the supplied DIN lock cylinders that are part
of a universal locking system.
Systems, machines, and components should only be connected to the enterprise network or
the Internet if and to the extent that it is necessary and with appropriate security measures in
place (e.g. using firewalls and network segmentation).
Through suitable configuration of the charging station and OCPP backend, the operator must
ensure that only secure RFID cards can be used for authorization. For example, Mifare Classic
cards are not classified as secure. At least OCPP 1.6J+ must be used for secure
communication between charging station and OCPP backend.
In addition, the recommendations of Siemens regarding appropriate protective measures
should be observed. For more information about industrial security, please visit:
(http://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity)
Only use current product versions
Siemens’ products and solutions undergo continuous development to make them more
secure. Siemens strongly recommends that product updates are applied as soon as they are
available and that the latest product versions are used. Using versions that are obsolete or are
no longer supported can increase the risk of cyber threats.
