  10. Tap Set.

The app disconnects and the charger reboots. It then connects to Plugchoice.


Registering your charger in Plugchoice

Troubleshooting

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

  • The chargepoint ID in Plugchoice must exactly match the charger ID.

  • Bluetooth connection timed out? Wait and select the charger again once visible.

  • Check Charge Mode is set to APP.

  • Check the wifi credentials and signal at the charger.
