Press the gun firmly into the charger to release the pin unlock button in the app (please make sure your charger is on the latest firmware for this feature to work).
Please make sure it is a good distance from the charger (8-10m) and that it is a stable connection, also check if it is on a 2.4Ghz frequency. Our charger will not connect to a 5Ghz frequency. Other way to overcome this is by connecting via ethernet.
Only units connected to an internet connection will show as available, please follow instructions in the following video to get your charger set up to a Wi-Fi connection: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zwNBxNgovEE&t=88s

You would have to connect the charger to your laptop via an ethernet cable, once done you then enter the parameter settings. Once you have the option to change the ‘authentication key’. Change this back to 12345678 and you should be good to go.
Please check the emergency button has not been pressed in, it will show this message if your car is fully charged and the charger is connected.
This may be because you have the charger in ‘plug & charge’ mode, in this mode the charger works as a very simple charger and will not communicate with the app. If you want to control and monitor via the app, then please change charging mode to ‘app’ mode.
Please make sure you are on the latest firmware version and that the charging mode is in ‘APP’ and then try again, this should work now.
Please check your internet connection is stable and that the server URL in correct, if you enter a 3rd party’s URL, then it will not work with our app.
The solar function may be activated which will charge at 8A rather than the full 32A, turn solar mode off and that will resolve this.
Please check the trip at the mains, if this has tripped then it will need resetting also for the EV charger to work.
If you connect the charger to a laptop via an ethernet cable and enter the parameter settings, you won’t have a 16-character limit in there.
