Hello
I own this charger and i'm trying to integrate it in EVCC....but does not works even it says that is ocpp compatible. Did someone manage to integrate it in evcc? The logs are:

• name: my_charger
  type: template
  template: ocpp
  stationid: 2SG4JLpdWf

PS C:\Users\buleu> Test-NetConnection evcc -port 8887

Thank you

Can you create an ocpp trace log?

[buleus]

hmmm can i make it from evcc? i have no option from the station.....(if yes how)

[mfuchs1984]

In your config.yaml

log: error
levels:
  lp-1: debug
  ocpp: trace

[mfuchs1984]

Or in the GUI, menu on the top right -> logs. Select TRACE and ocpp. But this covers only a limited timeframe.

Also have to mention that this charger is already integrated in Home Assistant.....Is there any way to connect evcc charger from a homeassistant charger?

[mfuchs1984]

Yes, e.g. mqtt.

[buleus]

Like publishing the charger in mqtt and then read it from evcc?

[mfuchs1984]

Basically like this, you need topics for status (A to C), enabled true / false or 0 / 1, enable to enable and disable the charger and maxcurrent to control charge current.

chargers:
  - name: mqttcharger
    type: custom
    status:
      source: mqtt
      topic: 
      timeout: 30s
    enabled:
      source: mqtt
      topic: 
      timeout: 30s
    enable:
      source: mqtt
      topic:  
      timeout: 30s
    maxcurrent:
      source: mqtt
      topic: 
      timeout: 30s

Don't do that. You can only have one controlling instance anyway.

[buleus]

yes...thank you very confusing anyway.....i mean if i will not integrate the charger in HA ...how should i publish to mqtt the required topics

[andig]

You shouldn't. Just use ocpp.

[buleus]

just a quick update! after i have ask the support of Lektrico why OCPP is not connected they explain me that the ocpp protocol is on cloud and not on local charging station so to work opening ports and an external ip is needed.....:) I did that and now my evcc + lektrico + ocpp is working perfectly!!! maybe someone need this info for other ocpp charging stations
