Settings With the EcoStruxure Power Device App

Description

A   NFC wireless communication zone

 

Using the EcoStruxure Power Device app, you can access the protection settings and download data to your smartphone. The EcoStruxure Power Device app works with an Android smartphone which has Near Field Communication (NFC) capability enabled.

 devices use a passive NFC tag, which does not have a power source. It draws power from the smartphone that reads it, and therefore does not emit any electromagnetic waves when NFC communication is not in use.

NOTE: NFC communication is only accessible from the Android version of the EcoStruxure Power Device app.

Prerequisites for Using NFC on  Devices

The prerequisites for establishing an NFC connection are the following:

oYou must have an Android smartphone with the EcoStruxure Power Device app installed.

oThe Android smartphone must support NFC functionality.

oYou must have physical access to the device.

oCheck where the NFC antenna is located on your smartphone. Place and hold the NFC antenna of the smartphone against the NFC wireless communication zone of  devices. To avoid communication loss, do not move your smartphone during communication.

oFor TeSys GV4PB devices: the trip unit must be powered by the pocket battery with reference LV434206.

Pocket Battery Description

The pocket battery supplies power to the device during NFC communication. It is mandatory for TeSys GV4PB devices and optional for TeSys GV4PEM devices.
