=Cable lock=
There is a possibility to activate cable lock on demand even if the charging is not initiated.
* When Cable lock is ON, the locking pin pushes out and fixes charging cable in place.
* When Cable lock is set to AUTO, locking pin behaves accordingly to the charging state the product is in.
** A state - Cable is not locked;
** B/C/D states - Cable is locked;
''By default this status is set to AUTO''<br>
''Settings can only be found in socket variant products''

There is possibility to turn ON/OFF authorization for TeltoCharge.

When authorization is ON, user have to authorize every time he wants to start charging process. Authorization can be done in two different ways:

''By default authorization status is set to OFF, user can set this status during the first set-up wizard.''
''By default authorization status is set to OFF, user can set this status during the first set-up wizard.''
=NFC=
For personalized authorization, there is possibility to add and use NFC cards. Just press "Add new card", name your card and then touch the NFC card to the side of the charger. It should say "Card added successfully".
More information about NFC cards pairing can be found [[NFC FAQ|here]].
''By default, NFC cards whitelist is empty.''
=Load balancing=
=Load balancing=
Inside load balancing menu user can lower or increase current up to the value which was set by the installer in Installer menu. <br>
For example: you set 32 A in Installer menu option '''Max power from grid''', so in user menu option '''Load balancing''' you will be able to set limitation from 6 A to 32 A.
''By default load balancing is set to 10 A, user can increase this value when he increases Max power from grid option in Installer menu.''
= Schedule =
There is an option to configure individual charging times in order to plan electricity usage or the effectiveness of the electrical grid.<br>
* For the time periods when the car should not be charged, select the ‘Peak hours’ section.<br>
*
* For time periods when the car should be charged, select the ‘Schedule‘ section (click on the '''+''' icon in the upper right corner).<br>
To set charging schedules, choose the desired hours and minutes on the provided clock.<br>
The ‘Repeat schedule‘ function repeats every week on the selected days.
When the ‘Repeat schedule‘ function is disabled, the selected charging schedule will be set only for the week ahead and will stop after the last set day. In this case, the ‘Enable schedule charging‘ function will be automatically disabled. If the ‘Start time‘ is set in the past, the schedule will be active on the next selected day of the week. For example, if the current time is 10 AM on Friday, but the ‘Start time‘ is scheduled for 9 AM on Friday, it will only be active on the following Friday at 9 AM.<br>
The ‘Enable schedule charging‘ function will be disabled at midnight after the end of a schedule.
It is important to optimize the active schedules and ensure that they do not overlap. '''Charger will not allow to save active overlapping schedules.''' However, when schedules are disabled, it can be saved.<br>
If peak hours are set for one time and scheduled charging hours are set later on the same day, there is a contradiction between these two conditions, and the EV will not be charged during the period between them. For example, if peak hours are set from 2 PM to 3 PM and regular scheduled charging hours are set from 5 PM to 7 PM, the EV will be charged only from 5 PM to 7 PM.
= Randomized delay =
The randomized delay function provides an additional layer of protection against grid overloading. In the following cases, a random delay of up to 10 minutes will be applied:
* ''When a vehicle is connected and attempting to initiate the charging process for the first time.''
* ''At the beginning and end of each scheduled charging session.''
* ''After TeltoCharge has been restarted, rebooted, or turned off.''
Although this feature is enabled, it can be manually interrupted by swiping the App slider or using an NFC card.<br>
Using the Randomized delay function along with scheduled charging hours, the EV will only begin charging after waiting for the scheduled time and adding a randomized delay of up to 10 minutes. Similarly, a randomized delay will be applied to the scheduled end of charging.<br>
If the EV charging process is interrupted (e. g. temporary power outage), the randomized delay will still be in effect when the power is restored, further delaying the start of charging.<br>
When OCPP is turned on, the Randomized delay functionality will not be active.
= Errors and warnings =
If TeltoCharge is not working correctly and giving errors or warnings, you will now be able to see more information in the app. All errors and warnings will be sent to the app in real-time.

= Live data =
Live data from TeltoCharge. It will be possible to see such data as:
''By default, NFC cards whitelist is empty.''
* ''Charging type''
* ''Phase used''
* ''Temperature''
* ''Max allowed current''
* ''Phase voltages (input and output)''
=Connectivity=

This configuration shall be used in two different ways:
This configuration shall be used in two different ways:
* If you <u>are</u> using Dynamic load balancing, use this value to set the maximum current per phase that can be supplied to the whole electrical installation. Usually this value is the rated current of the main circuit breaker.
*If you <u>are</u> using Dynamic load balancing, use this value to set the maximum current per phase that can be supplied to the whole electrical installation. Usually this value is the rated current of the main circuit breaker.
* If you <u>are no</u>t using Dynamic load balancing, use this value to set maximum current, which charger can use. This value should be calculated according to the possible load, that other appliances can be using, by subtracting it from the maximal current which is provided to the grid. That said, in this situation, current should not be higher than 16 amperes (If 11 kW charger is installed) or 32 amperes ( if 7,4 or 22 kW chargers is installed).

==Difference between phases==
This function let user to select how theirs power input is wired - in Star network or Delta network style. <br>
120° - Star (Wye) and Delta; <br>
180° - Delta and split phase.
In the case of Europe, most Star (Wye) and Delta connections will have a phase difference of 120°. In North America, the phase shift can be 180° when split phase connection type is used or in the case of Delta connection with center tap on one leg.
''Note: these parameters are used only for the power consumption (kWh) calculations and not influence operation of the charger.''
