EVLink PRO AC - Reaching over LAN - Server error

[JanM]

Hi

I am posting here for future reference should anyone run into this issue.

After the EVLink PRO AC is installed, you may want to reach it over LAN.

When browsing to it (https://<ev-ip>), and working your way through the SSL/certificate errors, I get a non-descript "Server error" without any further information.

After having called Schneider support with our technician, the rep mentioned that "there is no server" on this device. While this is not entirely true, the point is mainly that Schneider have disabled the Web interface on this device,  contrary to what is described in various manuals.

So I would advice not breaking your head on this, and use the "EcoStruxure Charging Configuration Tool" instead, where you can have the same UX as in the app, but from your PC.

Hope this helps someone

Thank you @JanM for your generous sharing on your experience and advice. This is gold to anyone who encounters the same when installing EVLink PRO AC with the advice to use "EcoStruxure Charging Configuration Tool."

Hi everyone who has similar concerns, here is a summary from @JanM's advice:
"After the EVLink PRO AC is installed, you may attempt to access it over LAN via a web browser; however, the web interface is disabled somehow in the response received, contrary to what some manuals suggest. 

Attempting to access it via browser results in a vague "Server error." Instead of troubleshooting this, users are advised to use the EcoStruxure Charging Configuration Tool, which offers the same user experience as the mobile app but from a PC."
