I have just installed an EVCS NS. First set up and firmware 2.0 complete, but I’m failing to get a connection between the EVCS and the vehicle (Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV). The type II cable is an Aptiv branded 32A single phase, and the resistances on the cable seem fine, though the PP line is possibly slightly high at 440ohm (measured with Fluke 324).
When I try to Calibrate CP I have an error message returned :
“Aborted! Calibration aborted by the user.”
If I try to Calibrate CP with no cable installed I get the same message, but as far as I can see there’s no obvious problem with the cable.
Hello @james.w .
Can you please update your EVCS to v2.02(the latest FW)? You can do that over the VRM or EVCS internal web interface. Also, please check that you are using the latest version of the Victron Connect APP.
In FW v2.02, CP calibration is performed automatically when you connect the EV. So, you don’t need to make additional calibration. Do you see any problems with EV detection(connected, disconnected)?
The EV detection is showing as Disconnected when the cable is connected. The car (Outlander PHEV) can see the cable, but the EVCS does not seem to see the cable
Hi, I’ve just checked with another type 2 cable to verify that the cable I was using was not faulty. This has the same result. The car is still Disconnected. They are both good cables which work with other chargers. Please let me know what to do now?
I have an identical problem with a Mitsubishi I-MiEV. The car is not properly detected by the evcs and charging does not work.
When I plug it in its show for a few seconds, then disappears. With the previous fw version I was able to ‘force’ a charge using the manual mode. But version 2.02 does not allow me to start charging without and identified car it seems.
Hello, I can confirm that there is a problem with the latest FW. When I installed 2.0.1 everything works. Remember that if you start and stop charging with the latest version, you only disconnect the cable from the car, the relay does not disconnect the mains voltage, this can be dangerous. (SKODA Elroq).
