  • Envelope with the QR code for the end customer

Installer requirements

  • USB-cable (supplied with the charging station)

  • Laptop with USB connection

  • Charger must have an Ethernet connection

  • Cpconfigprogram Elexon and Road config file. Please contact [email protected]. After this, we will send the files personally.

Follow the steps

Step 1: Send an email to [email protected] to request the Cpconfigprogram Elexon and Road config file.

Step 2: Connect the laptop to the charger via the USB cable provided.

Step 3: Open the CpConfig program on the laptop once the charger is connected to the laptop. You have received this by email.

Step 4: Once the programme is open, determine which USB port the charger is connected to. Open the device manager and click on 'Ports (COM & LPT)'. Here it says 'USB serial port'. Look which number is behind this and enter it in the programme at the top left under 'serial port'.

Step 5: Copy the settings as shown in the image below. The name of the charging station is the EVSE ID (NL*EFL*EV*XXXXXXX). If you have not received this, you can request it from us by e-mail or telephone. Under the heading 'OCPP SETTINGS' is 'HOST'. Enter 'ocpp.e-flux.com' here. At 'HOST PORT' enter the number 80. The url to be entered is

  • When using a white Road SIM card or another connection method: ws://ocpp.road.io/<Provider-slug>/ (name loading station)

  • When using a purple Road SIM card: ws://ocpp-internal.road.io/<Provider-slug>/ (name loading station)

Note:
When using a purple Road SIM card the APN name should be changed to: road.io. When using the white Road SIM card or another SIM card the APN name should be m2m.services

Step 6: At the bottom of the page, you have 'settings file' with the 'load' button. When you click 'load', select the Road config file. You have received this by e-mail.

Step 7: When you have completed all the steps, you can click 'write' at the top right of the page under the heading 'settings'.

Step 8: Call Road (+31 85 107 3573) as soon as the charger has restarted, so we can check whether the connection to the eMobility platform has been made. (Please wait a few minutes before calling).

The charging station is now linked to the Road platform!
