Charging modes & the Veton app

The Veton® charger is smart on its own. The Veton® app is the free companion that lets you see and steer it. Six modes, a live view, a session history. Works on your home network without an account. Keeps charging when your phone is off or the internet is down.

Is the Veton app free?

Yes. Free for every driver, on iPhone and Android. No subscription, no monthly fee. The charger keeps charging even if you never open the app.

Do I need the Veton app or an account?

No. The app is a free companion, not a requirement. On your home network it talks to the charger directly, with no sign-in. Create an account to reach the charger from anywhere. Either way, the charger runs on its own, even offline.

What charging modes does Veton have?

Six modes, four of them one tap away. Off stops charging. Fast charges as fast as your installation safely allows. Solar uses surplus from the panels only. Smart picks the cheapest and sunniest hours. Under More you find Manual, which holds a fixed current you set in amps, and Capacity, which caps the draw to protect your monthly grid peak.

What does Smart mode do?

Smart mode learns your routine. It reads the day-ahead price and the solar forecast, then schedules charging in the cheapest and sunniest hours, while still making sure the car is ready by your usual departure time. It keeps working offline on cached data.

What is the difference between kW and “Configured to N A”?

The kW figure is the live charging speed. The “Configured to N A” line is the ceiling, in amps, that the charger is allowing right now. The car will draw up to that ceiling, never above it.

Can I see and export my charging history?

Yes. The app shows your charging as a bar chart, with a Days view and a Months view. It breaks the figures down per charging point when your charger has more than one. Every session records energy and duration. Export to CSV for expense claims or your own records.

Can I share my charger with someone?

Yes. Grant monitor access to let someone see live status and history. Grant control access to let them change modes, schedules and the grid limit. Installer-only settings stay separate. Day-to-day sharing never exposes them.

Does it work when I am away from home?

Yes, once you sign in. With an account, the app reaches your charger over the Veton® secure cloud from anywhere. The office, on holiday, on mobile data. On your home network the app talks to the charger directly, with no internet connection at all.

What do the live readings Car, Total and Grid mean?

Car is what the car is drawing right now. Total is what the whole building is using. Grid is the net exchange at the meter. Positive means importing from the grid, negative means exporting solar.

What do the car statuses mean — Ready, Car connected, Charging, Paused, Complete, Error?

Ready means nothing plugged in. Car connected means the cable is in but no power is flowing. Charging means power is flowing. Paused means the session is on hold. Complete means the car is full, or its onboard limit is reached. Error means the charger needs attention.

Why isn’t my car charging, or why did it pause?

Almost always normal, and it clears by itself. The status line in the app names the reason. Common ones: the mode is Off, Solar is waiting for surplus, Capacity is holding back to protect the grid peak, Smart is waiting for a cheaper hour, or the car itself has stopped.

Do I need an account, and what data is collected?

No account is needed on your home network. Sign in to enable remote access and sharing. What we store: your charging sessions, your account details if you registered, and the location and panel setup you entered for Smart mode pricing and solar forecasts.

Can I manage more than one charging point?

Yes. If your charger has several charging points, pick the one you want in the app. Live data per point. History per point. You see exactly how much each one delivered.
