## Prerequisites

Make sure the following conditions are met before starting the setup:

- The Hardy Barth cPH2 is installed and connected to the local network.
- You have access to the FLOEM portal (CLEMAP account with administrator rights).
- Your device (PC or tablet) is on the same network as the charging station.

***

## Setup

### 1. Determine the IP address of the charging station

Scan the local network to find the IP address of the Hardy Barth cPH2. Suitable tools include:

- **Advanced IP Scanner** (Windows)
- **Fing** (smartphone app, iOS/Android)
- The **DHCP client list** in your router

The charging station typically appears in the device list under the manufacturer name *Hardy Barth* or the hostname `cph2-XXXXXX`. Note down the displayed IP address (e.g. `192.168.1.45`).

:::BlockQuote
**Recommendation:** Assign a **DHCP reservation** to the charging station in your router (fixed IP based on the MAC address) or configure a static IP directly on the device. Otherwise, the address may change after a restart and the connection to FLOEM will be interrupted.

### 2. Log in to the FLOEM portal

Open the FLOEM portal in your browser and log in with your administrator credentials. Navigate to **Settings → Charging Stations** (or "EVSE Management").

***

### 3. Add a new charging station

Click **Add Device** (or "+"). In the device type dropdown menu, select **Hardy Barth CPH2** from the list.

***

### 4. Enter the IP address and save

Enter the IP address identified in step 1 into the **IP Address** field. Confirm the entry and save the configuration.

***

### 5. Verify the connection

After saving, the charging station should appear as **online** in the FLOEM portal. The status indicator will switch from "Not connected" to "Ready" or "Connected". This may take a few seconds.

:::BlockQuote
**No connection?** Check whether the charging station and the CLEMAP controller are on the same network segment and whether a firewall is blocking access to port `80` or `502`.

The Hardy Barth cPH2 is now integrated into FLOEM and is available for load management and charging control.
