This project implements a communication protocol as part of emonmuc (energy monitoring multi utility communication), based on the open-source project OpenMUC, a software framework based on Java and OSGi, that simplifies the development of customized monitoring, logging and control systems.

The P-CHARGE systems by SSL Energie is a complete series of charging stations for electric vehicles, from the simple charging pillar for electric bicycles, mopeds and electric cars to complete parking area systems for department store chains, communal park houses and parking areas.

This project implements a basic protocol driver and charge control application specifically for the DIN rail EWS-Box.

To setup this protocol driver, emonmuc needs to be installed. To do so, a comprehensive guide is provided on the projects GitHub page.

With emonmuc being installed, the driver may be enabled

emonmuc install pcharge

To disable the driver, use

emonmuc remove pcharge

This shell command will automatically set up the driver. If there is the need to manually install the driver, the separate installation guide may be followed.

To provide an entrypoint for further developments, a generated javadoc can be visited.
