Charging park (A)
A charging park consists of all the charging controllers combined in a network. A charging park has a server, clients connected via Ethernet, and extension modules attached to the clients or the server.
For example: A CHARX SEC-3150 module as the server, with attached CHARX SEC-1000 extension modules, which are connected to additional CHARX SEC-3050 modules and attached extension modules.
Charging station (B)
A charging station is a grouping of precisely one server or client module. Additional extension modules can be attached to the server or client module.
For example: A CHARX SEC-3150 module with additional attached CHARX SEC-1000 modules.
Charging point (C)
A charging point is precisely one charging interface with the associated I/O device.
For example: The charging interface of the CHARX SEC-3150 module or a CHARX SEC-1000 module.
Charging stations
Figure 5-9 shows a charging park view together with the respective status of the charging stations and charging points. The charging park consists of a charging station with two charging points. The charging points are a CHARX SEC-3100 and CHARX SEC-1000.

In the charging park view, you can import configurations to the charging points (1) or access the charging point details (2).
You can run the individual charging points with different configurations. You can export the configurations beforehand from a configured charging point. Exporting makes it easier to reproduce charging point configurations.
•Click the “IMPORT CONFIGURATION” button.
•Importing charging point configurations
Proceed in accordance with • to import configurations:
•Select the saved configuration file (A)
•Select the charging point to which you want to transfer the configuration (B)
If you configure multiple charging points in a charging park with the same file, then you can automatically add an incrementing extension “-1”, “-2”, etc. to the charging point names stored in the configuration file (C).
If an existing configuration is not available, you can view the charging points on an individual basis and edit them step by step. To do this, select the respective charging point (see “Charging Stations/Charge Point/Configuration” on page 88).
