Editing Charger Details
The Charger Management section, located immediately below the Overview tab on your dashboard’s sidebar, houses all the functionalities necessary to administer your EV chargers.
To modify charger details:
- Click the horizontal ellipsis icon at the top of the charger info box.
- Select Edit Charger from the dropdown menu.
Fields You Can Edit:
- Display ID: Identifier visible on the charger display or web app.
- Manufacturer: Brand of the charger.
- Model: Specific model of the charger.
- Location: Physical location of the charger. Note: Changing the location may require updating the address under the Company tab.
- Driver Message Field: Communicates specific instructions or information to drivers.
- Parking Space # and Unit #: Designations for specific chargers that are private and visible only to select dashboard users or specific EV drivers.
If you need to update the serial number or OCPP ID, please contact support@chargelab.co for assistance. Please note that the OCPP ID is used for charger communication, and modifying this field can affect or interrupt the connection with ChargeLab's backend. The OCPP ID in the dashboard must match the one configured on the charger.
Deleting a Charger
You are also able to delete a charger through the menu on the chargers page. Before deleting, you will be asked to confirm with a warning message.
Deletion Considerations
- The charger will no longer be accessible to drivers and will be removed from your dashboard.
- Connection to the charger will be terminated if it is online.
- Chargers involved in active sessions or those that are part of power managed groups must have these functions disabled prior to deletion.
- Historical charging session data remains accessible to the company for reports and analytics.
