Setting up the charge point via wizard or hotspot
It is possible to set up the charge point via web app. You can set the charging rate values, the circuit protection value and you can connect the charge point to wifi (if available). Please note: after setup, the charge point will function in a limited mode for five days without internet.
Follow the following guide in order to connect the charge point to the wifi network at setup (if you have multiple charge points, this process must be repeated for each):
-
Turn off the charge point and -after a minute- turn it back on. This can be done in the fuse box by flipping the switch.
-
After about a minute a wifi network/hotspot will be broadcast under the name BCUxxxxxx. This is the charge point's serial number.
You can connect to this network/hotspot via telephone or laptop: you can do this for 10 minutes after turning the charge point on and off. After this time window, the network will disappear. Some Apple products cannot find the network - if it does not appear, please try with a non-Apple phone or laptop.
3. Open a browser and type: setup.now into the url bar. The following page will appear:
4. Click Next to move on to Step 2. In the exceptional case that the goal is to set the charge point to a correct charging rate before complete installation, then this page is where this can be done. The number of phases may be 1 or 3. The phase connection is likely to be 1. The max current setting will likely be 6 to provide a safe charging speed. If the goal is merely to setup wifi during or after a conventional installation, then this page need not be adjusted as Blue Current will make the correct changes based on information provided by the installer.
5. If the goal is to only or also set up wifi, please click Next to go onto Step 3: then click Setup wifi.
6. The next page will display all available wifi networks.
7. You can choose the correct wifi network and enter the correct password. Next, click Connect and wait a while until the network is configured.
