1. Introduction to VersiCharge Chargers
NOTE: These instructions only apply to the version number listed on the title page.
VersiCharge charger models can be parent (advanced) or child (basic), based on features. VersiCharge
chargers use the VersiCharge Configurator application, a Windows application, for configuration and
connect over Wi-Fi, Ethernet or a mobile network to VersiCloud using a built-in Wi-Fi connection.
The following chargers are supported by the VersiCharge Configurator:
• All VersiCharge UL models except those with part numbers EMX-XXX-XXXX
• VersiCharge IEC models with part numbers EMX-XXXX-XXXX
To view the Configurator’s user manual and get help, click on the Help icon.
To install the configuration tool, please refer to configuration tool installation manual which can be found at
usa.siemens.com/versicharge and siemens.com/versicharge.
2. Register in VersiCloud
Before commissioning chargers, create an account in VersiCloud.
For all UL chargers, (except EMX-XXX-XXXX) register using the following link:
https://www.versichargesg.com/Account/Login?ReturnUrl=%f
For IEC chargers, (P/Ns EMX-XXXX-XXXX) register using the following link:
https://versicharge.emobility.siemens.cloud/Account/Register
The VersiCharge mobile app for iOS and Android can also be used to register a charger.
NOTE: VersiCloud provides visibility of all chargers connected to the same account and also provides an
option to remove/deregister any chargers.
