The asset can be controlled via the Teleport to set the following operations.

  • dispatchPower - to control active power setpoint

Modbus TCP over ethernet

The Teleport can connect to VDL battery systems using Modbus TCP over Ethernet connection.

  1. Connect an Ethernet cable between the asset and either a router or an Ethernet port of the Teleport. If connected via a router, please navigate to our appendix for more instructions on how to integrate with a router.

  2. To set up the VDL battery TCP network configuration, access the asset’s web interface with the default credentials, or with the personalised credentials if these have been pre-configured.

  3. Navigate to ModbusTCP menu and set the required parameters under the Address section. The default IP address is 192.168.1.100 and Modbus Port is 502.
