If smart scheduling is disabled, you can simply just plug the cable into the vehicle, and it will start charging until it’s either unplugged or fully charged. Additionally, you can still have smart scheduling enabled so you get all the added benefits of security functionality, but you just utilise the ‘boost charge’ function which will then charge the car immediately if plugged in.
waEV-smart is the smart charging platform from waEV-charge that helps optimise your EV charging automatically, allowing you to charge during cheaper periods and potentially earn rewards through smart energy balancing.
Open the waEV-charge Installer App, select Owner Settings, choose your charger, enter the Access Code, select Firmware Update and enter firmware version 49.59. Wait approximately 5 minutes after confirmation before proceeding.
A Dynamic tariff changes electricity pricing throughout the day based on wholesale energy market conditions, allowing waEV-smart to optimise charging around lower-cost periods.
At present, waEV-smart does not support Smart tariffs where charging must be fully controlled by the energy provider. If Smart is selected during setup, the app will display an error message explaining that this tariff type is currently unsupported due to a control conflict between the supplier-managed charging system and waEV-smart scheduling.
The waEV-charge EV chargers can only be operated once the unique RFID waEV-Card is swiped or ev.energy smart charging app is activated therefore you’re fully protected from unauthorised use.
