Charging Profiles

Set charger power limits for different times.

Charging profiles use OCPP Smart Charging. Not every charger supports them.

Create a profile

1. Open Charging Profiles.
2. Choose Add profile.
3. Enter a name and select the site.
4. Choose the profile purpose and type.
5. Choose the unit: amperes (A) or watts (W).
6. Add one or more schedule periods.
7. Save.

Each period contains:

• a start time in seconds from the beginning of the schedule;
• a power or current limit;
• an optional number of phases.

Example:

Advanced options include validity dates, recurrence, duration, minimum charging rate, and stack level.

Assign a profile

1. Open Charger → Profiles.
2. Choose Assign profile.
3. Select the profile and connector.
4. Save.

Check the result. Accepted means the charger accepted the profile. Rejected means you should check the charger logs and settings.

Use Composite Schedule to ask the charger which limits are currently active.

Common problems

The profile is rejected

Check the unit, profile type, connector, schedule values, and charger support.

The limit is different from the profile

Another profile, site power limit, or vehicle limit may also apply.

The profile cannot be edited

It may already be assigned to a charger. Remove the assignment first.
