Take some precautions to ensure correct maintenance:
GENERAL
This could mean that there is no current reaching the Wallbox. The circuit breaker could be off or has tripped. Please check the circuit breaker and make sure that it is working. Press the test button on the circuit breaker - it should disconnect itself.
The reasons could be any of the following:
The vehicle has not charged completely, the charging time is greater than normal or the vehicle only charges at a low power
When the vehicle's charging session is almost complete, the charging speed begins to fall.
If the charger or the vehicle detects a temperature that is too high, the charging power is reduced for safety reasons.
Also, you may need to update the firmware of the Commander. Enter your Commander and select Settings > Update and see if there is a firmware update pending to be done.
If the vehicle only charges at a low power, and has never charged at a higher power, please check with the installer so they can check the current selector inside the Wallbox Commander.
The charging session has not been ended by the vehicle. End the charging session from the vehicle before removing the charging cable. Check the vehicle user guide in order to ascertain how to do this because each vehicle has different requirements. Use the car's key to open the car. In some cars this action stops the charging session and the charging cable is unlocked.
The screen is completely black and won't react to touch
Please touch the top right of the corner of the Wallbox Commander for 10 seconds and see if the screen turns on.
If the screen is completely black but the Commander is turned on, let's start with a "clean slate" by restoring and reinstalling the firmware using the Wallbox app on your phone.
Please enter the Wallbox app with your account, activate bluetooth and be close to the Wallbox Commander. Select your Commander.
Then please select the gear icon on the top right and then select Advanced Options > Restore.
Once the system has reset to factory settings, go back to the Settings section and at the bottom there will be a small "pop-up" that will say "Updates are available for this device".
Click this message and make sure you do not turn off the phone or leave the Bluetooth range for the duration of the installation as it may take a few minutes.
UPDATES
The software needs to be updated and I cannot update it
First of all, check you are properly connected to the Internet. If you do not have Internet connection use your mobile phone as a hotspot just for the update.
If your Commander is indeed connected to the Internet then do the following:
CONNECTION
There is no Wi-Fi coverage where the charger is installed
If it is not possible to install the Wallbox Commander anywhere else, a Wi-Fi extender could be the solution. The charger can also be connected to the Internet with an Ethernet cable.
A subscription plan called "Wallbox Always Connected" can be purchased with our sales team so you can always have your Commander always connected to the Internet.
Check that your Wi-Fi network and Internet are working correctly.
Android (Pie):
If the charger has lost its Wi-Fi connection, simply restart your Wallbox Commander and it will automatically reconnect.
Check your Wi-Fi modem as well to make sure it is functioning properly.
Your power supply is constantly checked by the Wallbox in order to ensure safe operation. If one of the parameters is outside the correct operating range, the Wallbox will not allow you to charge your vehicle and will show you a warning message on the screen:
Unavailability of the charging station:
No power to the charging station:
CHARGING LOGS
The charging logs do not appear in the myWallbox website nor the Wallbox App
In order for the charging statistics to appear in the app or the myWallbox portal, the Commander must be connected to the Internet. Please first check the Internet connection.
If the charging statistics still do not appear, you can do the following:
