Destination charger at a hotel? Scan the screen to get started.

The situation

You arrived at a hotel and they said there is an EV charger in the parking area. You found it, but it is a brand you have never used, the screen shows options you do not recognize, and the front desk person just shrugged when you asked how it works. It might be free, it might charge per kWh, it might need a hotel-specific code.

How the scanner helps

Scan the charger screen to understand the setup. The scanner tells you whether authentication is needed, what the pricing structure is (if shown), and how to start the session. You can charge overnight without worrying that you missed a step and will wake up to an uncharged car.
