Electrical vehicle charging unit JOINON EASY HOME and PARKING 8.2. CHARGING PROCESS 8.2.1. JOINON EASY HOME While charging, it is not possible to remove the plug because it is locked by the charging station. In order to remove the plug, first stop the charging. Charging types The charging station has two charging modes: nominal (I) and limited (II).
End of the charging process To end the charging cycle, move the lever of the selector to position 0 (central position). The front LEDs flash yellow while waiting for the user to disconnect the connector from the vehicle. Loss of supply (immediate charge and deferred charge) If there is an interruption in the electric power supply, the charging station will remain inactive until the supply is restored.
Electrical vehicle charging unit JOINON EASY HOME and PARKING DISCONNECTION OF THE MAINS SUPPLY This section describes the procedure for disconnecting the mains network from the device. If you want to work inside the device (qualified personnel only), first operate the circuit breaker located in the enclosure that protects the electronic board and then the protection located upstream of the power supply line.

2. POWER SUPPLY INTERRUPTED Description This error can depend on: • Mains supply failure. The station will restart when the supply is restored. • The station protections tripped. Solution If the error continues after restoring the mains supply, make sure the voltage is present in the charging station connection socket-outlet.
Electrical vehicle charging unit JOINON EASY HOME and PARKING WASTE DISPOSAL These charging stations use components that are harmful to the environment (electrical boards, batteries, etc.). At the end of its useful life, the device must be delivered to an authorised collection centre for the correct disposal of the hazardous waste.
• Deferred charge programming. • Firmware update. 13.2 FILE DOWNLOAD AND STORAGE To download the necessary files, follow the instructions provided below. If necessary, contact the GEWISS tele- phone support service. Creating the USB memory root In order to configure the charging station and/or download the operating data, it is necessary to create a memory root in the USB memory as indicated in the following image.
The “user.ini” file contains the variables that the user can configure. Not all parameters can be configured for all models, but they are included for reasons of compatibility. If a “user.ini” file is present in the /gewiss/config/ folder when the USB is connected to the station, the new con- figuration will be loaded.

nominal_current Current setpoint sent to the vehicle when the device is used in nominal charge mode. The default setting is nominal current, which is indicated on the specifications data plate of the charging station. It must a be whole, positive value. The lower limit is 6 Amperes according to regulations and the upper limit is equal to the current on the spec- ifications data plate.
This folder contains a copy for the user of the current station status configuration files. The copied files are: • user.ini • date.ini This makes it possible to check the configuration, current date and time of the device as well as to check that the data loaded from the configuration files in /gewiss/config/ were updated correctly.
DEFERRED CHARGING IN JOINON EASY HOME Most modern electrical vehicles have the option of programming or deferring the vehicle charge. It is recommended to use this function if it is available. For vehicles that do not have programmed or deferred charging, it is possible to configure deferred charging in this charging point with the maximum level of versatility and flexibility possible.

Electrical vehicle charging unit JOINON EASY HOME and PARKING Charging will start when the vehicle sends the charging start signal, both for immediate and deferred charging. or selector in position II, programmed interval charge mode. The current setpoint is deferred_current. The station permits charging when the starting time is reached and finishes at the programmed end time.

ACCESS AND DATA LOADING The procedure for accessing the USB connector available in the charging stations is described below. Open the enclosure door to access the device's USB socket-outlet and insert the USB memory in the relative connector. The charging station must be powered to load the data. If the parameters were loaded successfully, the station signal will flash white for a few seconds.
