Troubleshooting

Did you set everything up correctly, but the charger still remains "Pre-registered"?

  • The chargepoint ID in Plugchoice must exactly match the serial number (case sensitive).

  • Check the OCPP URL: no spaces, no trailing slash.

  • Check the charger's network status in the WebUI under Network Interfaces.

  • After saving the settings, restart the charger.
