Forward to Primary Backoffice
 

Note: This functionality will change before go-live to not having set Eve Control to READONLY anymore. Users will also be able to add a custom backoffice connection self-service
If you use a third-party Charge Point Management System (CPMS) as your primary backoffice, you can configure Eve Control to forward charger communication to that system. Eve Control then operates in READONLY mode.

 

1 Open the Charger’s Backoffice Tab
Navigate to Charging Stations, click on the charger, then select the Backoffice tab. By default, Eve Control is listed as MASTER.

2 Change Eve Control to READONLY
 

Click the edit icon next to Eve Control. Change the type from MASTER to READONLY and click Update.

3 Link Your Primary Backoffice
 

Click Link to central system. Select your primary backoffice system (e.g. ICU Connect), set the type to MASTER, and click Create.

4 Verify the Configuration
 

Both backoffice connections are now visible: Eve Control as READONLY and your primary system as MASTER.

MASTER vs READONLY: The MASTER backoffice controls the charger — it can start/stop sessions, manage tokens, and send configuration. READONLY only receives data and status updates. A charger can have at most one MASTER connection.
