Article summary

This guide describes how to onboard Hydra chargers with Tap.

Onboarding in this context means getting the charger communicating with Tap. If you are looking for a complete guide for setting up an account and configuring your locations, see our Quick Start Guide.

To connect Hydra chargers, you will need access to the charger touchscreen, which is password protected. If you don't know the password or are not at the site, contact Hydra support to help connect the charger to Tap remotely.

  1. In the Tap app: Locations > connect new charger
