Configuring the Wallbox eM4 Twin

The Controller and Extender variants of the Wallbox eM4 Twin are prepared for use as a single wallbox (stand-alone) 
or for operation in a group installation. The desired operating mode is selected in the 

ABL Configuration App

which also performs the following tasks:

 

ƒ

Generally simple and quick configuration

 

ƒ

Setting up the network topologies

 

ƒ

Grouping Controllers/Extenders to create a charging group

 

ƒ

Setting technical parameters (such as maximum charging current, phase imbalance, etc.)

 

ƒ

Settings for the backend connection

 

ƒ

RFID management

 

ƒ

Monitoring of charging processes, operating statuses, faults, etc.

 

ƒ

Starting and stopping charging

 

ƒ

Permanent locking/unlocking of the charging cable

 

ƒ

Updating the software of the charging station, etc.

NOTE

Storage requirements for installation

To install the 

ABL Configuration App

, free memory space of at least 200 MB is required on the mobile device.

Setting up communication via the ABL Configuration App

To configure the Controller and Extender variants of the Wallbox eM4 Twin in the 

ABL Configuration App

, you must 

first set up wireless communication between your mobile device and the WLAN network of your wallbox: This pro-
cess is described below.
Once the wireless connection is set up, you can assign a specific password that allows you to access and change the 
current configuration at a later date: This process is called 

reboarding

 and is described starting on page 44.

NOTE

Displaying the setup in the app

The steps in the 

ABL Configuration App

 are illustrated based on an Apple iPhone screen: However, the basic 

operation in iPadOS and Android is identical.
