FoxESS AC EV Charger (Modbus)

← Chargers

This page shows the nightly version. Switch to the release version.

The work mode must be set to "Modbus TCP" in the Fox Switch app. How a session starts depends on the charger's own operating mode - start either via app or RFID card, or automatically on plug-in.

Supported features

• mA regulation: Finer charging current regulation (mA instead of A) for better solar surplus use.
• RFID: Integrated RFID card reader for vehicle identification.
• Built-in meter: Support for an integrated meter.
• 1P/3P: Automatic phase switching. Useful for solar surplus charging.

💚 Sponsor token required
