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

2. Select Ratio.

3. Copy your unique URL from the Tap app or webportal.

This will enable the charger’s Wi-Fi Hotspot for 10 mins. If the log in process is not completed within this time frame, the charger must be rebooted.

  • Network name: ratio_io7

  • Password: Ratioio7

6. If using a (Windows) laptop, open the wifi settings, and connect to the charger's hotspot. Note you may need to select "Connect using a security key instead" as pictured.

  • Network name: ratio_io7

  • Password: Ratioio7

7. Open a web browser and enter 10.7.10.7 into the URL address bar. Note: if the page below appears, click "Advanced" then "Continue".

8. You should now be at the Ratio portal login. Enter your credentials:

  • Username: Installer

  • Password: RatioInstaller

9. Navigate to the User Settings section and change the password to a memorable secure password and store in a safe location.

10. Navigate to the CSMS section.

11. Toggle "Offline Authorization" to off.

12. In "CSMS Server Address" paste the URL you copied from Tap. Click Save.

13. Return to the Tap app. After a minute the charger should appear and you can proceed with onboarding.
