1.8 Managing Access Cards

The Access Cards module enables you to assign, authorize, and manage Access
Cards associated with individual users or user groups. Access Cards authenticate that
you can charge a vehicle. Use Planning > Access Cards to assign which Access Cards
can access a station and at which pricing option.

There are two types of cards – Access Card and Payment Card. The Access Card allows
a user to charge the electric vehicle free of cost. As the owner, you can scan and
assign Access Cards to an individual within your organization, or to a group of users.

The Payment Card (also called the WattStation

TM

Connect Payment Card) is purchased

by EV drivers through outlets such as Amazon, to pay for charging at different
WattStations. These cards are not managed by station owners.

To access the Access Cards module, click the Access Cards tab on the main menu.
The following page displays:

1.8.1 Assigning Access Cards to users and user groups

WattStation

Connect > RFIDs

You may give Access Cards to your employees or authorized corporate users to use at
your charging stations. Make sure you assign the cards in a way that they can be read
by an Enrollment card reader (HID card reader) when using WattStation Connect. An
Enrollment card reader is a scanning device that can read RFID cards such as the
WattStation Access Cards.

TIP

GE recommends that all new Owners make a one-time purchase of the GE

Enrollment Reader, to scan Access Cards and automatically transfer their

information into WattStation Connect.
