UDP commands
3.1
General information
The following section will cover all available UDP commands and categorize
them appropriately into commands meant for regular use and commands
with specific use cases.
The charging station reacts on broadcasts and directly addressed
commands. In a group of several charging stations, direct addressing must
be used because otherwise all charging stations would react.
The commands are sent to the charging station as simple text commands
(without end characters such as
<CR>
or
<LF>
). The replies come as data
packages with up to 512 bytes and are formatted in JSON standard.
