Normal Charge Mode

In this mode, the EVSE / charging device is connected for charging. Normal charging includes immediate charge mode, and timer charge mode. In all modes, the charge level can be set to either 100%.

IMMEDIATE CHARGE MODE

When EVSE or normal charging device is connected to the normal charge port, the PDM (Power Delivery Module) transmits an EV system activation signal to VCM. Li-ion battery charge then starts immediately.

When the timer charge is set, Li-ion battery charge does not start just after the PDM (Power Delivery Module) transmits an EV system activation signal to VCM. When VCM detects an ON signal from the immediate charging switch in that state, VCM judges that the immediate charge mode is selected and starts charging.

When the charge is finished and VCM receives a Li-ion battery charge completion signal from Li-ion battery controller, VCM stops the charge control.

TIMER CHARGE MODE

VCM starts up automatically and starts charging at the set time.

NOTE: Timer can be set on information display in the combination meter.

Item

Description

Timer Charge 1

Timer Charge 2

This mode starts and stops charging according to the timer that is set on VCM.
When VCM receives a Li-ion battery charge completion signal from Li-ion battery controller or at a set timer charge finish time, VCM stops the charge control.

Chg. Timer Only at HOME

(With navigation system)

The timer charging is applied only when the normal charge is performed at home.
When the charging is performed at the place other than home, the charging automatically starts when a normal charge connector is connected to the vehicle.

REMOTE CHARGE MODE

This mode starts the charge by remote control with a mobile tool.

NOTE: For operation, Refer to System Description .

When TCU transmits an EV system activation signal to VCM, VCM judges that the remote charge mode is selected and starts charge control.
When VCM receives a Li-ion battery charge completion signal from Li-ion battery controller, VCM stops the charge control.
