How to perform a cable unlock action of a charging station?
Charging stations that support OCPP offer a wide range of actions which can be executed remotely in order to resolve possible issues. Performing a cable unlock action remotely of a single or double socket charging station works as follows:
-
Log in to MEC;
-
Navigate using the side bar to ‘Assets’;
-
Select ‘Charging station’ as asset type using the top bar;
-
Navigate using the search field filter to the charging station of choice;
-
Open the charging station of choice by clicking on the charging station;
-
Navigate using the socket tile to ‘Actions’ for the socket for which the ‘Unlock’ needs to be performed;
-
Select ‘Unlock’ from the drop-down list and perform the action by clicking on ‘Execute action’;
-
Navigate to the ‘Logging’ tab in order to see whether the action has been successfully logged and followed-up by MEC.
