Starting The Wattpilot is starting up or restarting. The LEDs light up in rainbow colours. Ready The Wattpilot is ready for operation. The number of LEDs that light up indicates the set charging current. Each LED represents 1 ampere (A). A maximum of 32 A can be displayed, whereby the first two LEDs are reserved for the charging modes.
Page 17
1-phase charging The Wattpilot is carrying out 1-phase (230 V) charging with low to high charging current. One series of blue LEDs moves in a clockwise direction. The level of charging current is indicated by the number of LEDs and the speed of rotation. 3-phase charging The Wattpilot is carrying out 3-phase (400 V) charging with low to high charging current.
Page 18
Earthing test deactivated The earthing test is deactivated. Four LEDs light up at 3, 6, 9 and 12 o'clock. Internal communication fault The Wattpilot displays an internal communication error. The error code is displayed in the app. For more information, see Status Codes.

Update successful The LEDs light up alternately pink and green. Update failed The LEDs light up alternately pink and red. Reset card detected The Wattpilot has detected the reset card and the settings are reset. All LEDs light up red for 2 seconds.
5 minutes is stored. The surplus energy of a PV system (photovoltaic system) can be used. The prerequisites for this are a compatible inverter in the same network as the Wattpilot and a Fronius Smart Meter (for more information, see Data communication with the inverter).

The settings for the start-up power level and 3‑phase power level can be made under Cost optimisation in the Fronius Solar.wattpilot app. The power level can only be regulated in increments of 1 ampere. The table below lists the charging current in amperes (A) and the corresponding charging power for 1‑phase and 3‑phase charging in kilowatts (kW).

NOTE! If no temperature sensor is connected to the Fronius Ohmpilot, a temperature of 0 °C is assumed. If the Wattpilot is to be prioritised over the Ohmpilot, set the "Ohmpilot limit value" to 0 °C. In the event of a sensor break, the Ohmpilot is supplied with power before the Wattpilot.
IMPORTANT! The energy management with the digital outputs (I/Os) on the Fronius inverter must not be used for load management of the Wattpilot! The priorities of the loads are not clearly assigned.
Eco Mode can be configured in the app under Cost optimisation and activated by pressing the pushbutton (< 0.5 s) or via the Fronius Solar.wattpilot app. NOTE! The battery of the photovoltaic system is discharged first! If the system contains a stationary battery, the battery of the photovoltaic system is dis- charged when the electricity price falls below the threshold before mains current is drawn.
In the Fronius Solar.wattpilot app, the PV surplus and/or flexible electricity tariff must be activated and set under Cost optimisation. Household consumption is covered by photovoltaic generation and the electric vehicle is charged with the PV surplus.

When setting the char- ging amount, the actual state of charge of the electric vehicle battery is not read out. The mode can be set under "Next Trip Mode" in the Fronius Solar.wattpilot app (see Next Trip Mode).

The daily journey to work and back home is 50 km and must start at 08:00. In the Fronius Solar.wattpilot app, the kilometres and the departure time must be entered once under Next Trip Mode. 18 kWh is used as the basis for the calculation of 100 km. The electric vehicle is plugged in and charged at approximately 15:00.
Installation location and position Choice of loca- The following criteria must be taken into account when choosing a location. tion The Wattpilot is suitable for outdoor operation without direct sunlight. The Wattpilot is suitable for operation in a well-ventilated indoor area. Do not operate the Wattpilot in areas with increased danger as a res- ult of ammonia gases.

If the charging current per phase cannot be covered by the backup power, the Wattpilot must be connected outside the backup power loads. A Fronius inverter is required for backup power mode. If the Wattpilot is connected in the backup power circuit of a photovoltaic system and the total current of one phase is exceeded as a result, the inverter switches off the backup power.
