Get Your Charge Station and Connect It to E-Flux by Road
Setting up your charge station can seem overwhelming, but don't worry—we'll guide you step by step to make the process easy.
1. Figure Out Your Needs
Before setting everything up, it’s important to understand your requirements. Here’s what you need:
Hardware: A charge station.
Installation: Someone to install it (an installer).
If you're the only one using the charge station and don’t need to track or share charging costs, then the hardware and installer are enough. However, if you want to:
Track charging behavior,
Set tariffs for others to use your charge station,
Reimburse costs with others, or
Manage your charge station remotely,
You’ll also need software to manage your charge station.
2. Get Your Charge Station Installed
First, you’ll need to have your charge station installed. The best way is to find an installer experienced with charging station setups. They’ll help you choose the right charge station brand. To ensure your charge station is compatible with E-Flux by Road, check which brands are supported here.
3. Configure Your Charge Station
Once the charge station is installed, the next step is configuring the software. Ideally, your installer will handle this. If they haven’t worked with E-Flux by Road before, you can share our 'Installer Knowledge Base' with them to help with the setup. We provide manuals for each charge station model to guide them through the configuration process.
4. Connect Your Charge Station
After configuration, the installer will finish their work. At this point, you can finalize the setup by creating an account on E-Flux by Road and connecting your charge station to your account. Once connected, you can start using and managing it right away.
