Integrate Reduxi with the AXIbox 11K charger via Wi-Fi, utilizing the OCPP protocol. Reduxi's flexibility allows cost reductions of up to 30%.
1. Evchargo app
1.1 AXIbox 11K:
https://axitecsolar.com/en/axibox-11khttps://abb.installer.chargedot.com/#/login
1.2 The application is available on the Google Store:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cn.enplus.chargein
1.3 The application is available on the Apple App Store:
https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/evchargo/id1533765408
2. Connect to the Evchargo application
2.1 Login/Registration to the Evchargo application
Open the application and either log in or register a new account. The home page ("Welcome page") is displayed below.
2.1.1 Evchargo app for charger settings
Once logged in, configuration for the EV charger in the Evchargo app must be performed.
- Add new group:
- Add new charger:
:
- Use Bluetooth scanning and choose the device:
- Add the device:
- Connect to Wifi:
- Once connected to Wifi click on the "Settings button" below left:
- Click on the server information button:
- Fill in the server information as displayed below:
The OCPP server URL is obtained from Reduxi controller.
Example URL = ws://192.168.1.78/ocpp/1.6/json/
Protocol type = WS
IP/Domain = 192.168.1.78
Port = 80 (for WS protocl)
Path = /ocpp/1.6/json/
- The final step, is the home page of the connected EV charger:
3. OCPP communication between the AXIbox 11K charger and the Reduxi controller
3.1 Add device
First login to the local Reduxi configurator and add a new device by clicking the 'Add device' button.
3.2 Select the device that you would like to add
Within the first step select basic settings:
- Select Device type: EV charger,
- Select Type: OCPP 1.6 - JSON,
- Name the device.
3.3 Device Configuration for OCPP
The second step is used for the Communication channel, for OCPP communication to work properly. First, fill in the Device identifier (SN of AXIbox 11K) obtained from the Evchargo app, which needs to be set in the communication channel.
When the OCPP JSON 1.6 protocol is utilized, the server OCPP URL is needed and generated by the Reduxi controller. URL can be obtained directly from the Communication channel.
Example URL: ws://192.168.1.78/ocpp/1.6/json/
3.4 Test communication
To ensure that OCPP communication is established, a communication test can be performed via the 'Test communication button' located bottom right after all Communication channel fields.
There are three different cases of communication response.
Case 1: Communication is working properly.
Case 2: Unable to communicate with device 1, the ID of the device is not set or is different.
Case 3: No device with OCPP 1.6 communication is found.
4. Readings from Device
The purpose of this point is to show how to check readings from the device. This is done under 'Device/Last measurement'.
Once the device is successfully added through the configurator, it can be monitored via the cloud application Reduxi.
