Where the setting lives
In the Teltonika Energy app, paired with the charger over Bluetooth: Settings → OCPP.
Step by step
- Open the app, Add new device, pick your TeltoCharge and pair with the last 6 digits of the security code (label).
- Give it internet: Wi-Fi, Ethernet or SIM (with your carrier's APN). Update the firmware from the app.
- Settings → OCPP: in Server URL your brand's base URL ending in a slash (
…/ocpp/your-brand/); in Charge point identity the serial number (or whatever you register). - Switch OCPP on, Save and restart the charger. Within a minute it shows as connected on the same screen.
What to enter to connect it to askacharge.com
| OCPP server URL | wss://askacharge.com/askacharge/ocpp/your-brand — your-brand is your brand's identifier on askacharge.com (shown under Chargers → Add, with the full URL ready to copy). The charger appends its own identity; if your unit only has a URL field and no identity field, enter the full URL: …/ocpp/your-brand/identity. |
| Charge point identity | The same one you register in the panel when adding the charger. Case-sensitive. With Teltonika, 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
- The URL must end in
/; without the slash it does not connect (Teltonika's own FAQ says so). wss://is supported from firmware 1.4 (November 2022); on anything older, update first.- With OCPP on, the app hides some settings (the ones the platform now controls). That is normal.
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.
