REMOTE CHARGE PORT OPEN & PLUG UNLOCK
SETTING THE DESIRED CHARGING CURRENT/POWER
PC05T portable charger allows user to set desired charging current/power before it’s plugged in the TESLA
electric vehicle Type 2 socket or even while the vehicle is charging! Procedure is simple:
•
press and hold the “3 function” push button: LED turns off immediately,
•
after
5 seconds
LED starts blinking slowly,
•
releasing the push button after a certain number of blinks determines charging
current/power as follows:
1
3 x 6 A / 4,1 kW
2
3 x 8 A / 5,5 kW
3
3 x 10 A / 6,9 kW
4
3 x 13A / 9,0 kW
5
3 x 16A / 11,0 kW

“3-function”
Push Button
New charging current/power setting is stored in the memory and it stays the same
(even after the power supply is not present anymore) until the next setting change is
performed.
All Tesla vehicles also allow users to set charging current manually on the Tesla central
screen or smart phone application. But if you set PC05T charging current to e.g. 10A
that would immediately LIMIT the max. charging current setting to 10A also on Tesla
central screen or smart phone application.
(6 A / 1,4 kW – single phase mode)
(8 A / 1,8 kW – single phase mode)
(10 A / 2,3 kW – single phase mode)
(13A / 3,0 kW – single phase mode)
(16A / 3,7 kW – single phase mode)

LED blinks
When PC05T is plugged into the wall outlet/socket (power applied) pressing a “3-function” button sends a
remote-control signal to your TESLA vehicle charge port which then opens remotely. Signal range is usually
between 3 and 15 meters. This feature eliminates user “touching” the smart phone or Tesla central screen in
order to open the charge port.
To unplug PC05T while still charging or when charging completed press and hold the “3 function” button for
a second. The car will unlock the plug (only if car is unlocked/owner nearby!) and then you can unplug PC05T.
This feature once again eliminates the need for user “touching” the smart phone or Tesla central screen in
order to unlock PC05T plug from Tesla charge port.
These are two functions of the “3-function” push button. Third one is described in the next chapter below.
