zappi12 operation and installation manualOperationCharging Modeszappi has three different charging modes which can be selected simply by pressing the button when the main screen isshowing. The charge mode can be changed before or during a charge.Regardless of the charge mode used, all of the surplus electricity is used but zappi's special eco charge modes, limit theamount of grid electric used. Below is explanation of each of the three charging modes.FASTCharges at the fastest rate.Fast Mode will charge the EV at the fastest rate and will import grid electricity if there isinsufficient surplus generated power.The actual charge rate is dependant on the EV's onboard charger and the grid supply voltage.Typically, vehicles have either a 3.3kW or 6.6kW charger. The actual power can be a littledifferent if the grid supply voltage is not exactly 230V.zappi will deliver up to 7kW provided the supply connection is suitably rated.ECOAdjusts the charge rate to limit the use of grid electricity.The charge rate is continuously adjusted, in response to changes in generation or powerconsumption elsewhere in the home, thereby minimising the use of grid power.Charging will continue until the vehicle is fully charged, using available surplus power.However, if at any time, the available surplus power falls below 1.4kW, the shortfall will bedrawn from the grid.Note: The EV charging standard does not support charging below 1.4kW.ECO+Adjusts the charge rate to limit the use of grid electricity and will pause thecharge if there is too much grid electricity being used.The charge rate is continuously adjusted, in response to changes in generation or powerconsumption elsewhere in the home, thereby minimising the use of grid power.Charging will pause if there is too much imported power, continuing only when there is enoughsurplus power available.The surplus power threshold at which the charge will start or stop can be set in the ECO+Settings option, which is found in the Charge Settings menu.It is possible to charge the EV using only surplus renewable power, providing there is sufficientsurplus power to do so. To do this, set the Min Green Level to 100%.The Min Green Level is the minimum level for the contribution of green energy at the endof the charge. The actual green contribution for the charge, is displayed when the charge iscomplete or the EV is disconnected. For example: With Min Green Level set to 50%,charging will be paused if 700W of power is being imported from the grid and will resumecharging when there is 700W of power being exported.Note: The EV charging standard does not support charging below 1.4kW.
