Important information about the AURA
The standard configuration of the AURA is that it can only be released again after the charging process has been completed by means of an RFID card. (Decoupling of the plug)
This means that if you end the charge on the car side, the mechanism of the station for the plug is not automatically released.
This can be remedied by means of our maintenance tool (eCarUp Premium), proceed as follows:
Parameter Get Configuration and the key is UnlockConnectorOnEVSideDisconnect (default to false).
Parameter for the change Change Configuration and again with the key UnlockConnectorOn EVSideDisconnect + Value set to true and save with Set.
