Page 16 Ampere Power Energy S.L. User Manual Relays R2, R3, R4 and R5 can operate on 24 VDC safety voltage. Only if the protective cover is installed on the equipment, these relays can handle 110/230 AC voltages according to the maximum power described above. Relay protective cover Diﬀerence between equipment with and without the cover Connection when working with safety voltage (24 VDC)
Page 17 Ampere Power Energy S.L. User Manual Connection diagram for external loads using safety voltage Connection when working with alternating voltage (110/230 VAC) This installation is only possible if the protective cover is ﬁtted. Remember that only relays R2, R3, R4 and R5 can be used for this purpose. To install the wiring, it is necessary to ﬁrst remove the protective cover from the relay outputs.
Page 18 Ampere Power Energy S.L. User Manual Failure to install the protective cover causes an electric shock hazard as a voltage of 230 VAC is present on the relay outputs. It is dangerous and it is therefore the protective relay cover must be replaced after the connection has been made and before powering up these connections.

Page 35 This tool enables you to select the network parameters and generate a ﬁle, AMPIConf.conﬁg, which you can upload via a USB stick to the SEMS ONE. The process is detailed below. When a Wi-Fi network has been conﬁgured, the Ethernet port will remain active with automatic DHCP addressing.
Page 36 Ampere Power Energy S.L. User Manual To enter the parameters, ﬁrst select the network connection for the SEMS ONE (Ethernet or Wi-Fi). In both cases, the addressing type can be set to Automatic IP (for DHCP) or Static IP (to set a static IP).
Page 37 After putting the ﬁle in the appropriate place, remove the USB stick and insert it into one of the USB ports of the SEMS ONE. After a few seconds, the device will detect the unit and the new conﬁguration will be automatically loaded and the network will be conﬁgured. To ensure proper loading, it is advisable to leave the unit plugged in for a couple of minutes.
