Installing OCPP

Step-by-step instructions for installing and setting up OCPP functionality in WinCC OA.

Before installing OCPP, ensure you have:

  • A valid OCPP license (see OCPP Licensing)
  • Administrative access to the WinCC OA project
  • Network connectivity for charge point communication
  1. Add the OCPP sub-project to your WinCC OA project.

    Add the OCPP_<Version> sub-project to your main project structure.

  2. Configure the JavaScript Manager.
    1. Add a JavaScript Manager to the project console.
    2. Configure the manager to use the script ocpp/index.js.
    3. Start the JavaScript Manager.

      This script will automatically create the needed internal datapoint types and add the OCPP menu point to the System Management interface.

  3. Verify the installation.
    1. Check that the JavaScript Manager is running without errors.
    2. Verify that the OCPP menu appears in System Management.
    3. Confirm that the internal datapoint types have been created.

After successful installation, the OCPP functionality is ready to use. You can access the OCPP user interface through System Management > OCPP > OCPP 1.6.
