Connect v2.0 Release Notes
Release Information
• Product: GE WattStation
TM
Connect
• Release Number: v2.0
• Release Date: January 31, 2013
New Features
•Pay By Time
A new pricing model, ‘Pay by Time’ is introduced with this release. It allows you to offer a
new pricing option to your drivers - where you enter a fixed price and a maximum
charge duration for each charging transaction. This not only offers the benefits of the
‘Pay as you Charge’ feature, but also establishes an upper limit on how long a vehicle will
charge at your WattStation.
• New pricing calculator
The new pricing calculator in WattStation Connect now bills customers for the
length of time a vehicle draws charge at a WattStation, or charging time, instead
of billing customers for the length of time a vehicle was connected to the
WattStation.
Additionally, charging time is not rounded up to the next hour as before — it now
increments every 5 minutes. The 1 hour minimum charging time is also
eliminated with this release. A $1.00 minimum billing amount replaces the 1 hour
minimum charging time. This affects the ‘Pay As You Charge’ and ‘Pay By Time’
pricing models. This does not affect the ‘Flat Rate’ pricing model.
• Language Support

• Support for iPhone 5.
