Which OCPP URL do I enter on a Orbis for askacharge.com?

wss://askacharge.com/askacharge/ocpp/your-brand/identity, the full URL with the charger identity at the end, because on Orbis there is no separate field. your-brand is the brand identifier on askacharge.com. The identity must match the one registered in the panel and the password stays blank unless the charger's OCPP credential has been enabled.

Do I lose the manufacturer's app when I set OCPP on a Orbis?

Some app functions move to the OCPP platform (start, cards, statistics). The hardware stays the same and you can go back by changing the URL again.

How to change the OCPP server URL on a Orbis charger (Viaris Uni) and connect it to another platform

Q: Can a Orbis charger be connected to a platform other than the manufacturer's?

Yes. The Viaris Uni, Viaris Combi+, Viaris City models speak standard OCPP and let you change the server URL. In the charger's embedded web page: Wi-Fi ORB-EVVC3… (Uni) or ORB-EVVC4… (Combi+), factory password 12345678, then 192.168.4.1 in the browser → Settings → Communications → OCPP. The e-Viaris app has it in the same place (settings → OCPP).

A Orbis charger that speaks standard OCPP can be connected to any platform by changing one setting. Here is where that setting lives on Viaris Uni, Viaris Combi+, Viaris City, exactly what to enter, and where people usually get stuck. Written by a platform (askacharge.com), but the procedure works for any.

Where the setting lives

In the charger's embedded web page: Wi-Fi ORB-EVVC3… (Uni) or ORB-EVVC4… (Combi+), factory password 12345678, then 192.168.4.1 in the browser → Settings → Communications → OCPP. The e-Viaris app has it in the same place (settings → OCPP).

Step by step

Firmware 7.1.7.202 or later (updated from e-Viaris). First connect the charger to your Wi-Fi (Network → Connectivity).
Open the web page (or e-Viaris) → Communications → OCPP.
In URL enter the URL complete with the identity: wss://askacharge.com/askacharge/ocpp/your-brand/EVVC3nnnnnnnnnnnn. The URL in lower case and the serial number in upper case, as printed: there is no separate identity field here, it goes in the URL.
In Port set 443 (a different one is preset). Press Overwrite / Save.
Restart the charger. It can take up to 5 minutes to show as connected. Register exactly the same EVVC3… in the panel.

What to enter to connect it to askacharge.com

OCPP server URL	`wss://askacharge.com/askacharge/ocpp/your-brand/identity` — the full URL, with the charger identity at the end: on Orbis there is no separate field for it. your-brand is your brand's identifier on askacharge.com (shown under Chargers → Add, with the full URL ready to copy).
Charge point identity	The same one you register in the panel when adding the charger. Case-sensitive. With Orbis, the serial number is the easiest choice.
Password	Blank by default. If you enable the charger's OCPP credential in the panel (recommended for units exposed to the internet), the username is the identity and the password is the one the panel generates: OCPP Security Profile 2.
Protocol	OCPP 1.6J (JSON) or OCPP 2.0.1. Subprotocol `ocpp1.6` / `ocpp2.0.1`.
Before connecting	The charger must be registered in the brand with that identity; otherwise the server rejects the connection. Register under Chargers → Add.

Where it usually fails

Change the charger's factory Wi-Fi password (12345678) as soon as you are done.
Enable RFID or touch activation first (Touch/RFID) if you want sessions authorised from the platform.
With a 4G SIM, set the APN under Communications before anything else.

If your brand isn't here

The procedure is always the same; what changes is where the setting lives: look in the manufacturer's app, in the charger's web interface (by its IP) or in the installer software for a section called OCPP, Back office, Central System or Server. You need to be able to enter the URL and, nearly always, the identity. If the field is locked or missing, the manufacturer has tied the charger to its own platform: read what to do when the manufacturer locks or switches off its server.
