Authentication
Whether or not authentication is required depends on the configuration in the SCB. If no
authentication is required, the charging process is free of charge for the user.
If authentication is required, there are 4 options available. Follow the instructions on the
touch screen, depending on selection.
Figure 7-3 Authentication
• RFID
The RFID reader is located behind the glass under the display. You will receive a
corresponding RFID card, for example, after registering with a mobility service provider.
For example, to log in, you will need to enter your account details. When prompted, hold
your RFID card in front of the RFID reader.
• PIN
After successful registration at the operator of the charging station, the customer receives
a PIN. This PIN is used as the authentication factor. Enter the PIN via the touch screen.
Valid PINs contain 6 digits.
NOTE
With an increasing number of valid PINs as authentication medium, the probability of
random guessing and corresponding unauthorized use increases.
• QR code
Scanning a QR code initiates an operator-specific authorization process in the OCPP
backend. In some circumstances, a QR code may require the use of an app. The charging
process is started from the OCPP backend.
A charging-point-specific QR code can be displayed on the touch screen after entering the
URL in the SCB. Alternatively, a general QR code can also be displayed.
