Gateway
Select the gateway for the data points to be used.

Username
Enter your Easee Portal username.

Password
Enter your password for Easee Portal. If you are editing an existing application, this field can be left blank.

Chargers
Click “Get Chargers” to view all chargers your account has access to.
The list shows the name, serial number, site, and rate, and chargers that have already been added are marked “In use.” Select the chargers you want to use and the types of data to be retrieved for each charger. When you click “Add,” you’ll see one row per charger and data type, pre-filled with the relevant information.

Data Points
: Select which data points you want to write data to. We recommend using a “virtual data point of the "data store" type.”

Type

An application can have a maximum of 100 data points. The gateway must be connected in order to retrieve the chargers.

Data Types You Can Retrieve

You can retrieve these values from Easee:

  • Consumption – cumulative energy consumption over the charger’s lifetime, in kWh

  • Active power – total active power, in kW

  • Hourly consumption – cumulative energy consumption per hour, in kWh

  • Session consumption – cumulative energy consumption for the current charging session, in kWh

  • Online? – whether the charger is connected to the cloud

  • Operating mode

  • Current draw T2, T3, T4, and T5 – current in A

  • Output current – maximum current the charger can supply to the vehicle, in A

  • Voltage T1-T2, T1-T3, T1-T4, T1-T5, T2-T3, T2-T4, T2-T5, T3-T4, T3-T5, and T4-T5 – voltage between terminals in V

  • Error code – code describing an error or why the charger is offline.

Operating Mode

The operating mode can have the following values:

  • 0: Disconnected

  • 1: No vehicle connected

  • 2: Waiting to start

  • 3: Charging
