Follow the steps:
Step 1: Make sure the controller is connected to the network by a network cable and a router or a switch on one side and the ETH0 port of the charge controller on the other side.
Step 2: Turn on the circuit breaker/fuse, wait for about 5 minutes for the controller to start up after turning the circuit breaker/fuse on.
Step 3: Go to the IP-address of the controller, If a DHCP server exists in the network, the controller will automatically be assigned to an IP address and a host name. You can reach the controller by going to http://ev3000.local/. If problems occur this way, go directly to the IP address of the controller (see below).
Step 4: Run the following command in Command Prompt (Windows) or Terminal (Mac) to perform a ping to the hostname.
ping ev3000.local -4 (Windows)
ping ev3000.local (Mac)
In this example, the IP address is 192.168.0.172. Go to http://192.168.0.172/ to reach the controller.

Step 6: Click on Charging park in the menu, then on Charging stations and search for the charging point. Next, click on the name and navigate to Configuration.
Step 7: Scroll down until you see Release Mode. From the drop-down list, select By OCPP.
