Terminal # 1 - The socket lock motor: this pin is to be used for connecting the motor controlling the socket lock, the
microprocessor can set the combination (0 V, +12V/1.3A pulsating, NC.). The pulse duration is con-
trolled by the unit application logic; the output has no overcurrent protection.
Terminal # 2 - The socket lock motor: this pin is to be used for connecting the motor controlling the socket lock, the
microprocessor can set the combination (0 V, +12V/1.3A pulsating, NC.). The pulse duration is con-
trolled by the unit application logic; the output has no overcurrent protection.
Terminal # 3 - The locked socket state switch: this pin is used for connecting PULL-UP 2.2 kΩresistor to 5V voltage
and to the microprocessor input pin. The microprocessor evaluates the input voltage of (3-5) V as “the
socket lock switch open”. The microprocessor evaluates the input voltage of (0-2) V as “the socket lock
switch closed”.
Terminal # 4 - The locked socket state switch: this pin is used for delivering the signal GND for the socket lock switch.
Terminal # 5 - The CP input/output: on this pin, the microprocessor, using additional circuits, can set the voltage
combination (-12 V, OPEN, +12 V, PWM defined duty cycle ±12 V) with the output impedance of 1kΩ.
This pin is also connected through the auxiliary divider to the microprocessor AD input for evaluating
the actual voltage on this pin. The microprocessor evaluates the voltage drop on 1kΩ resistor and cal-
culates retrospectively the load impedance on the side of the charged electric vehicle.
Terminal # 6 - The PP input: this input is used for evaluating the type of the connected charging cable, eventually for
detecting if any cable is connected to the socket. The microprocessor, using the connected PULL-UP
resistor (with a capacity of 1kΩconnected to 5V voltage and the AD converter input) evaluates the
voltage drop on the AD converter input and the microprocessor recalculates it to the value of the resis-
tor installed in the charging cable socket (according to the resistor evaluation, the maximum current
load of the cable is: 13 A, 20 A, 32 A, 63/70 A).
Terminal # 7 - The signal GND for pins Terminal # 5, Terminal # 6.
Terminals - These terminals are free.
Terminal # 9
Terminal # 10 - The armature outputs: used for connecting the power contactor of the electric vehicle charging current
line. When the RELE-CHARGE charging relay is activated, the pins Terminal # 9 and Terminal # 12 are
connected. The maximum current load of the contacts is 5 A. The pin Terminal # 10 is connected to the
pin Terminal_N and cannot be disconnected on the printed circuit board.
Terminal_N - Supply power of 230 V – N central conductor.
Terminal_M - Supply power of 230 V – L phase conductor.
Terminal_N and Terminal_M are the inputs with 230 V AC supply voltage used for supplying power to the internal power
source and the armature coil in the power contactor of the electric vehicle charging current line.
The microprocessor, using the additional circuits, evaluates the availability of 230 V voltage. If the mains voltage failure
is detected, the microprocessor interrupts the current charging process (with K1 configuration jumper installed the
charging socket will also be automatically unlocked).
