BLE Commissioning

Every BRIGHTBLU Jolt charger can be configured locally over Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) using the BRIGHTBLU installer app — no internet connection required. This is how a charger is commissioned in the field before (or without) a network link, and how key settings are changed on site.

This page describes what you can do over BLE. Programmatic API access (for partners building their own app) is available on request — see API access.

What you can configure over BLE

Section titled “What you can configure over BLE”

Connectivity

Section titled “Connectivity”
  • WiFi provisioning — set the WiFi network the charger should join.
  • OCPP server — set the OCPP 1.6J central-system URL and the charger identity, so the unit connects to your CSMS.
  • OCPP version — select the OCPP profile the charger should use.

Charging control

Section titled “Charging control”
  • Start / stop a session — begin or end a charge from the app.
  • Maximum current — set the charging current limit (within the model’s rated range).
