Troubleshooting

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

  • The chargepoint ID must exactly match CHARGEBOXID_CUST.

  • No web interface? Ping 192.168.2.127 to test the cable.

  • Check the URL ends in /v1 with no typos.

  • Reboot the charger after saving.
