Chapter 1Presentation of the Commissioning Tool
Description
IntroductionThe commissioning tool is an application running on an integrated web server that provides authorized operators with an interface for managing a stand-alone charging station or EVlink Parking Standard EV•1S•••••• charging stations with a cluster cabinet. The commissioning tool allows the configuration of EVlink devices and badge management to control access rights.
Network ArchitectureThe commissioning tool can be used in 2 types of architecture:
stand-alone EVlink Parking Standard EV•1S•••••• charging stationsa cluster cabinet with its charging stations
The commissioning tool automatically detects the type of architecture used and adapts the HMI in consequence.
Access RightsThere are 2 levels of access to the commissioning tool:
admin: commissioning operator with full administrator rights authorized to:configure the parameters available in configuration modeupgrade the firmwareperform all user actionsmodify the user and admin passwords
user: authorized only to:manage the authentication functionmanage badgesconfigure the EVlink MS Energy Management option (when available)modify the user account password
Minimum RequirementsThe minimum requirements for using the commissioning tool are:
a computer with:an Ethernet porta web browser
a shielded twisted pair insulated category 5 Ethernet cable with RJ45 connectors
WARNINGUNINTENDED EQUIPMENT OPERATIONIT network architecture must be defined and configured only by qualified personnel.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.
WARNINGUNINTENDED EQUIPMENT OPERATIONOnly appropriately trained persons who are familiar with and understand the contents of this guide and all other pertinent product documentation are authorized to work on and with this product.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.

Accessing to the Commissioning Tool
Connecting to the Commissioning ToolThere are several ways to connect the computer to the charging station and access the commissioning tool:
if the stand-alone charging station is not connected to an Ethernet network:open the stand-alone charging station and use the internal Ethernet port (see the EVlink - EVW1S•••••• - EVF1S•••••• – Instruction Sheet)
if the stand-alone charging station is connected to an Ethernet network:use the Ethernet port of the switch connected to the stand-alone charging station (recommended solution)if no switch is present, use an Ethernet port available on one of the Ethernet devicesotherwise, open the stand-alone charging station and use the internal Ethernet port (see the EVlink - EVW1S•••••• - EVF1S•••••• – Instruction Sheet)
NOTE: Before proceeding with the hardware connection, check that you have the minimum equipment requirements.
Computer Configuration
Logging On to the Commissioning Tool

Parameter List
Allow simplified mode 3 ParameterDuring the standard charging process, the electric vehicle sends a signal to the charging station to confirm that it is ready to be charged. In the simplified mode 3, this confirmation is not required.
Set the Allow simplified mode 3 parameter to on to allow charging of an electric vehicle that does not have an internal switch.
Station Location ParameterSome types of electric vehicle emit toxic gases during charging.
The Station location parameter defines the environment in which the electric vehicle charges:Set the Station location parameter to Indoor (factory setting) if the charging station is installed indoors with no ventilation management handled by the building.Set the Station location parameter to Outdoor if the charging station is installed outdoors or indoors with a building ventilation management.
Allow to leave cable connected ParameterSetting the Allow to leave the cable connected to on allows to leave the cable connected to the charging station and to close the charging session without errors.

Normally Open ParametersThe parameter Normally open defines the activation condition of input 1 and input 2:
If checked, the corresponding input is configured as NO (normally open).If unchecked, the corresponding input is configured as NC (normally closed).
NOTE: Contact the installer of the charging station to find out the wiring of the inputs and their NO or NC configuration.
Load Shedding Set Point ParameterThe parameter Load shedding set point defines the maximum current delivered by the charging station during the load shedding action. It is configurable during the commissioning phase.
For example: If Load shedding set point = 8, the current supplied by the charging station will be limited to 8 A during the load shedding action.

Parameter List
Configuration Set-up ParameterThe cluster cabinet can adapt its power consumption based on the total power consumption of the entire site by connecting a global energy consumption power meter to the cluster cabinet.
Set the Configuration set-up parameter to dynamic to allow a dynamic management of the power consumption by the cluster cabinet. The cluster cabinet can manage the power consumption of each charging station. In this configuration, a power meter on the incoming line is required. The power delivered by cluster is: (Maximum power to cluster – (Value of power meter on incoming line – Power used by cluster)).
If the Configuration set-up parameter is set to static, the consumption of the cluster cabinet and its charging stations is defined only by the Max power to cluster parameter.
Energy Repartition Scenario ParameterPriority to charge the connected electric vehicles is taken into account with the Configuration set-up parameter:
Set it to 3kW Priority to charge a maximum number of electric vehicles simultaneously regardless of their battery capacity.Set it to Balanced Power to split energy among the batteries according to their own capacity and in a proportional way when there is not enough energy to charge all the connected electric vehicles.

Load-Shedding Priority ParameterIn case of overload, the cluster cabinet stops the charging of electric vehicle by taking into account the Load-shedding priority parameter:
Set it Charge duration to stop in priority the charge of the electric vehicle that has been connected the longest. Charging of the vehicle that has been connected the longest is stopped.Set it Energy delivered to stop in priority the charge of the electric vehicles that have loaded the most energy.
