This invisible server component is used to connect charging stations that cannot establish their own OCPP connection. The Modbus data of the charging station can be forwarded to an OCPP backend via this client. Only one charging station can be connected per OCPP client.
Data points of the component
Name |
Type |
Function |
|---|---|---|
Backend IP address |
Bidirectional |
The IP address of the driver can be changed here at runtime. |
Diagnosis [Text] |
Output |
Attention: Diagnostic or debug outputs are only intended for use in the event of an error. Please use only after consultation with the support team! If used, these can significantly affect the performance of the service. |
Extended Diagnosis |
Input |
An ON signal is used to extend the diagnostic output. |
Modbus Update Duration [ms] |
Output |
Output of the time in milliseconds until all registers have been read from the Modbus table. |
Modbus update in progress |
Output |
An on signal is output during the update of the Modbus data. If no update is taking place, this output is off. |
Modbus update counter (since start) |
Output |
Number of successful updates since driver start. |
Modbus data |
Output |
Output of raw data for each read register. |
Modbus device status |
Output |
Indicates whether the device is readable (on signal) or not (off signal). |
Modbus device warning |
Output |
If there are read errors, this output is set to On. No error = Off. |
Read out Modbus now |
Input |
An ON signal at this input triggers a single query of the values. Each additional ON signal triggers a further query. |
Modbus Ping Reachability |
Output |
If the Modbus device can be reached via a ping, an on signal is output. |
Modbus Write Duration [ms] |
Output |
Output of the time in milliseconds how long the write took. |
Modbus write running |
Output |
As long as writing to the Modbus is in progress, an on signal is output. |
Modbus connected |
Output |
Outputs an on signal when a connection to the gateway could be established. |
Messages (OCPP) [Text] |
Output |
Output of the communication with the backend as text. |
Driver On/Off |
Bidirectional |
Switch driver on or off. |
Connection status (OCPP) |
Output |
If there is a connection to the backend, an on signal is output, otherwise an off signal. |
Properties of the component
Name |
Standard |
Function |
|---|---|---|
Channels |
51 |
The Modbus register table of the charging station is located here. The register addresses of the charging station must be entered here. Registers with address 65535 are not used. |
Status values |
9 |
Translation of the status values to text. (e.g. 1=idle; 5=charging ect) see manufacturer data. |
Error values |
16 |
Translation of error values to text. (e.g. 0=no error; 7=other error) see manufacturer data. |
OCPP Connection |
0.0.0.0 |
Settings to be able to connect to the backend. |
Modbus Connection |
Serial ... |
Connection to the Modbus gateway |
Modbus device address |
1 |
Specification of the Modbus device address (or also called device ID) |
Start delay |
|
Delays the Modbus start by ID*150ms |
Modbus Options |
... |
Settings for reading and writing the Modbus registers |
OCPP Connection Check Interval [s] |
60 |
Check interval of the connection to the OCPP backend in seconds. |
OCPP Websocket Ping Interval [s] |
60 |
Sending interval of websocket ping messages. 0 = deactivates sending. |
OCPP Heartbeat Interval [s] |
300 |
Interval for sending OCPP Heartbeat messages. |
OCPP Measurement Interval [s] |
10 |
The current measured values are transmitted to the OCPP backend at the interval set. |
OCPP measured value interval [s] (accumulated) |
900 |
At the set interval, the accumulated measured values (average values / interval energy) are transmitted to the OCPP backend. |
Power limitation delay [ms] |
0 |
Delays the setting of the power limitation by the specified time in milliseconds. |
Station ID |
STATIO10NID |
Own name of this station. This does not have to be identical to the serial number, but can be. |
Default ID Tag |
IdTag |
ID Tag to be used when a transaction is started locally (no transmission of the ID Tag from the external system). |
Configure Start/Stop Transaction |
... |
Settings for the transaction abort. The value to start/stop a transaction must be entered at "TX stop value" and "TX start value". |
Device information |
... |
Information about the charging station. At least "Manufacturer" and "Model" must be filled in. |
Minimum current |
6 |
according to the manufacturer of the charging station |
Maximum current |
16 |
according to charging station manufacturer |
Set power |
