Available in a range of 25 to 80A. Installation EV-Optimizer There are two ways to install the EV-Optimizer. Both ways are explained step by step. If you are using the P1-port, you may continue with ‘installation with P1-port’ (page 6). If you are using current transformers, you may continue with ‘installation with current transformers’.
Step 5 Determine where the clamp of the EV-Optimizer will be placed and attach it to the wall using the fixing materials. Step 6 Put the EV-Optimizer into the holder. If there is not enough space, there is a horizontal brace available.
Attach the 2 wires from 1 wire pair of the SF-UTP cable in the orange plug as shown on image 4 (page 5) and insert the plug into the corresponding RS485-port (2) on the EV-Optimizer. See image 3 (page 5). Ensure that the 2 wires correspond with the connected wires on the modem in the supply station.
New RS485 interface on Elvi The new Elvi-hardware contains an external RS485-interface that can be connected through a Dynamic Load Balance-system such as the EVBox Smart Charging. Often the RS485-interface uses a fixed serial cable. This cable is mostly a CAT5 / CAT6-networkcable of which 2 wires (A and B) are connected to the terminal strips 3 and 4 on the DIN-rail in the Elvi Walldock.
G4 Connection The EV-Optimizer is connected to the EV-Box G4 series with other connectors. This one is made for 2 instead of 4. The wire pair is connected in the same way as the connector with 4 pins. See image 4, page 5.
First, determine whether the main fuse contains a fuse or a circuit breaker. Now that the EV-Optimizer has been installed, you can verify if it is placed in the right way. If it concerns a fuse, there should be 2 lights turned on.
The flashing speed is equal to the power consumption. If the power usage goes up, theLED indicator will flash faster. Continuing green (of the first light): The EV-Optimizer is still in programming mode The second lamp needs to be constantly turned on, if it concerns a fuse. Put the rotary switch (in the EV-Optimizer) from 5 to 6 inside the EV-Optimizer.
