EVBox Elvi

If the device is installed with phaserotation, this can be configured in the EVBox Elvi with the EVBox Connect App so the voltages and currents are reported on the correct phase. This is necessary for the loadmanagement of EVBox, but for the usage with evcc the phaserotation should not be configured inside the EVBox Elvi. Especially if the Elvi was used in a EVBox loadmanagement, it should be ensured in the Installationmode of the EVBox Connect App that the string under "Phaserotation" ends with "RST".

Parameters

NameDescriptionValueLevel
stationidStation ID

Unique identifier of the charger. Automatically detected once the charger connects.

Example: EVB-P12354
optional
meterMeter ID
Default: true
optional
connectorConnector number

For multi-connector stations. Numbering starts at 1.

Default: 1
advanced
remotestartStart remote transaction on vehicle connection

Only enable this option if there is no way to initiate transactions from the charger side! This is only the case if e.g. no RFID reader is available and charging processes would have to be released individually via app. Normally, the charger should always be configured at the device so that either an RFID card is used for activation or the charger is set to "Autostart", "Free Charging" or similar. First check the documentation and configuration possibilities of the charger, ask the manufacturer if necessary! (Uses OCPP RemoteStartTransaction)

advanced
idtagAuthentication token

This option is only required in exceptional cases if the charger requires a specific token for accepting external transactions. (Uses OCPP RemoteStartTransaction)

Example: evcc
advanced
connecttimeoutTimeout for registration

Timeout for the registration of the charging point

Default: 5m
advanced
metervaluesMeter values for transmission

Manual specification of the meter values to be configured (MeterValuesSampledData)

Example: Energy.Active.Import.Register,Power.Active.Import,SoC,Current.Offered,Power.Offered,Current.Import,Voltage
advanced
Configuration example for evcc.yaml

If you don't want to configure via the UI, you can alternatively use this YAML block.
