Here are the steps to configure your BEQ charging station
There are three ways to configure the charging station :
1: Using the BEQ Connect app, which offers certain usage and configuration options.
2: Through the terminal’s internal menu, which is more comprehensive.
3: Through the installation shortcut, which is intended for installers; this document serves as a quick reference guide for using it.
First, you must connect to the terminal via the local network it broadcasts. To do this, open your network settings and connect to your terminal. You should find the station model as the identifier, along with its serial number. In this example, there are two 48-amp residential stations (R48), and the serial numbers are 45 and 48.
Select the access point you want to configure and log in.
Next, in a new web page, enter the following address: 192.168.4.1/install.
A quick and simplified setup menu will appear; here are some explanations of the fields you need to fill out.
Network configuration section:
For this section, simply enter the name of the local network provided by the client and its password.
Access Management section of the access point:
For residential use without billing, select UNLOCK (uncontrolled) or APK if the customer wants to configure access to the terminal via the app. For billing management applications, select OCPP.
Current limit section:
Simply select the maximum charging current limit, ensuring it does not exceed 80% of the circuit breaker’s rating, or less if you wish to limit the terminal’s maximum load.
Charging controller section:
If the terminal is used with a load controller, you must specify the controller’s LoRa address and select that it is active.
Note: The controller must also be configured to communicate with the terminal.
Power Sharing Section:
If you have two terminals on the same power circuit and want to share the load, you must specify which terminal is used for load sharing. One terminal must be the master and the other the slave.
OCPP Section:
For this section, if the access management option is set to OCPP, you will need to enter the management server address and the credentials provided by your service provider.
Card reader section:
If your terminal is equipped with this option, you must complete this menu. A reference guide for this section is also available.
Factory Reset Section:
If you made a mistake or if certain settings you entered are preventing you from using the terminal, you can start over by selecting this option.
Note: To apply the entered values or to reset the terminal, you must press the SAVE button.
Enjoy your recharges!
