Managing Drivers

This guide walks you through how to create, configure, and manage drivers (users or vehicles) in the eMabler Charge Point Management System (CPMS), including setting up access and RFID-based authentication.


1. Creating a New Driver

  • Go to Drivers > Click “Add”

  • Enter required fields:

    • Name (required)

    • Home site (for operator visibility)

    • RFID and optional details like start/expiration dates

    • External ID (optional)

    • Site/Charger Access to define where charging is allowed

  • Save the driver profile


2. RFID Tag Management

  • Drivers may have one or more RFID tags

  • Tags can have:

    • Validity period (start/end date)

    • Custom labels

  • All tags share the same access permissions

  • Tags can be added, edited, or deactivated as needed


3. Home Site Concept

  • Used for grouping and operator visibility

  • Does not grant charging permissions

  • Drivers must still be granted site or charger access explicitly


4. Managing Access Permissions

  • Drivers can be authorized for:

    • Entire sites (including subsites)

    • Individual chargers (if fine-grained control is needed)

To Add Access:

  • Go to driver profile → Site Access or Charger Access → Add

To Remove Access:

  • Click “Remove” and select target sites/chargers


5. Authentication Methods

Drivers can authenticate via:

  • RFID/NFC tags

  • ISO15118 (Vehicle VIN / MAC)

  • License plate recognition

  • PIN codes

  • Bluetooth proximity

Authentication must be supported by the specific charger.


6. Editing Driver Info

  • Editable fields: Name, Home Site, External ID, RFID, Access

  • All updates take effect immediately

  • Accessible under each driver profile
