ADD-ON COMMUNICATION APPARATUS ATTACHED TO CABLE INSTALLMENT TYPE CHARGING CONTROL DEVICE
First Claim
1. An add-on communication device attached to a cable installment type charging control device attached to an electric vehicle charging cable assembly, comprising:
- a wireless communication unit wirelessly communicating with a terminal device;
an infrared light receiving diode receiving a first infrared light having a first digital pattern, and receiving a second infrared light having a second digital pattern representing electric vehicle charging related information from the cable installment type charging control device;
an attachment check unit checking whether the add-on communication device is attached to the cable installment type charging control device on the basis of the first digital pattern and changing a state of the add-on communication device on the basis of whether the add-on communication device is attached to the cable installment type charging control device; and
a control unit obtaining the electric vehicle charging related information from the second digital pattern, and transmitting the electric vehicle charging related information to the terminal device through the wireless communication unit.

Abstract
An add-on communication apparatus is attached to cable installment type charging control device integrally attached to an electric vehicle charging cable assembly. A wireless communication unit wirelessly communicates with a terminal device. An infrared light receiving diode receives an infrared light having a digital pattern representing an attachment check response signal and receives an infrared light having a digital pattern representing electric vehicle charging related information from the cable installment type charging control device. An attachment check unit checks whether the add-on communication device is attached to the cable installment type charging control device on the basis of the first digital pattern. The attachment check unit changes a state of the add-on communication device on the basis of whether the add-on communication device is attached to the cable installment type charging control device.
