What's new
Operators can now set an EVSE inactive until a date they choose. In the "Set to inactive" dialog, pick a date under "Set to active again on". The EVSE goes inactive now, and a scheduled "Set to active again" change appears in the EVSE header with a Cancel button.
Workflows also have a new "Set active" action. It activates EVSEs by default, or deactivates them, for example with a Scheduled trigger.
Why it matters
You say once when an EVSE should come back, and Monta switches it on again. Nobody has to remember to reactivate it by hand.
Who it's relevant for
Operator admins who pause EVSEs for a known period, and teams that automate EVSE status with workflows.
How to use it
- Open the EVSE and select "Set to inactive".
- Pick a date under "Set to active again on". The date must be at least 15 minutes ahead.
- Confirm. To undo it, select Cancel on the scheduled change in the EVSE header.
Good to know
- Only operator admins see the date field. Other members can still request approval to set an EVSE to active at a future time.
- An EVSE can have one scheduled reactivation at a time. Cancel the pending one before picking a new date.
- If the reactivation cannot be scheduled, the EVSE stays active and the dialog shows the reason.
- "Schedule for later" is not available while a date is picked.
- This works for one EVSE at a time. There is no bulk version yet.
