Introduction This document describes an expanded charging network with the following devices: ● KeContact M20 master device (embedded PC with power adapter and LTE antenna) ● Compatible client devices (P30 c-series) The device variant can be read off based on the product designation on the type plate.
Purpose of the document This document describes the installation and configuration of the expanded KeContact M20 functions. This includes the description of settings in the web interface. WARNING! Risk of electric shock to persons! In addition to this document, all information in the description of the power adapter, which is in the power adapter packaging, must be observed.
Introduction Warranty Only general maintenance work that is expressly permitted by KEBA may be performed. Any other tampering to the device will result in a loss of the war- ranty claim. Notes on this document The manual is part of the product. It is to be retained over the entire life cycle of the product and should be forwarded to any subsequent owners or users of the product.
System overview System overview The KeContact M20 enables control of multiple charging stations. The con- nection is established over the IT network (switch/router). This makes charg- ing with an intelligent load management possible. In combination with an up- stream electricity meter, the entire charging network can be controlled dy- namically (Modbus TCP).
Information WLAN stick (WLAN access point / WLAN hotspot) ● The connection of a WLAN stick to the KeContact M20 is fundamentally possible, but not recommended. Use at your own risk. In case of prob- lems, troubleshooting is not assisted by the manufacturer.

Connections and wiring Power supply The KeContact M20 may only be supplied using the power adapter included in the scope of delivery (in the control cabinet) using the DC-In jack. The primary supply of the power adapter is the responsibility of the respec- tive electrician (power connection line not included in the scope of delivery).
25 cm away from people. Mounting the antenna directly on the device To mount the antenna, proceed as follows: 1) Switch off devices connected to the KeContact M20 and disconnect their power cables. 2) Tighten the antenna (2) at the antenna connection (1).
Read out configuration To read out the configuration, proceed as follows: 1) Plug the USB stick into the KeContact M20. It must be ready for opera- tion and already configured. 2) Transfer of the configuration is started automatically. The status LED also flashes and soft audible signals are emitted at longer intervals.
To import the configuration to the desired KeContact M20, proceed as fol- lows: 1) Plug the USB stick into the KeContact M20. It must be ready for opera- tion and already configured. 2) Transfer of the configuration is started automatically. The status LED also flashes and soft audible signals are emitted at longer intervals.

Importing configuration 7.2.1 Create configuration If this has not yet been done, a first KeContact M20 must be configured with the desired settings. These settings serve as the basis for the configuration of additional KeContact M20. The easiest way to configure the KeContact M20 is via the web interface. On the graphical user interface the available settings and selection fields are provided with short explanations.

The con- figuration for the entire charging network takes place via the web interface of the KeContact M20 (master). The actual size of the web interface may differ depending on the device vari- ant.
Integration of external meters The KeContact M20 can read out the measured values from external meters via Modbus TCP. This allows an intelligent calculation of the charging cur- rent provided to the vehicle, and the charging process is optimized. The measured values that are read out are included in the charging current spec- ification.
