Charger Settings
Click on Charger Settings to receive information and manage the charger. A charger is described as a Charge Point that has one or more Connectors.
Connector
A connector is the equipment (cables or power outlets) that supplies electrical power to charge electric vehicles. A charge point has one or several connectors (fixed cables or outlets).
Under Connector, you’ll find information about the charger outlet/connector, such as connector ID, max power, and connector type.
Status Log
Under Status Log, you’ll see all status updates reported by the charger. This can help you understand if the charger has contact with our server.
Charge Point
Under Charge Point, you’ll find information about the charger itself, such as Vendor, Model, and Serial Number. The charge point is where an electric vehicle can be charged and has one or more connectors (fixed cables or outlets).
From here, it’s possible to remotely restart the charger. This could be useful as a first step if the charger doesn’t behave as expected.
For the advanced user, it’s also possible to read the configuration of the Charge Point.
Event Log
For the advanced user, you can find information about the events communicated between the charger and our server. To get more details, you can click on each event.
