Description
For installations that do not require ‘pay for use’ charging, fleet management, or sophisticated event-based load management for numerous charge stations, iCS provide a free to use software platform for configuring and using charge station(s) through a smartphone or tablet.
The ICS2.0Lite software is preconfigured as standard to the intelligent range of iCS charge stations (excluding the ICSW7B) enabling straightforward connection through the WiFi hotspot created by the charge station.
There are two distinct password-protected login areas for Engineer & Driver use.
Engineer:
The Engineer area allows for full configuration of the charge station for online or offline use. Many of the default settings will not require changing, however full flexibility of control is permitted.
Driver:
For Drivers to access this the charge station will need to be connected to the
ICS2.0Lite backend. For greater connectivity options, many of the iCS intelligent charge stations now have added WiFi capability, resulting in a straightforward process by using the owner’s broadband connection. Subsequently, there is also the option to connect by Ethernet cable or with a data-only sim card. Once connected the software allows for full control of the charge station, including starting/stopping charge sessions, the timing of charge sessions to coincide with lower energy tariffs, and viewing of historic charge session information.

Ratings and Reviews
Unreliable
The app is just too unreliable and not very responsive. When it works it’s fine to start and stop charging (I.e. the most basic functions!) but otherwise it really should be a *lot* better. Also, the time is not set to GMT/BST local time!!
Excellent functionality
The app works well and does what it says on the tin.
We install ICS chargers and have had only good experiences. Chargers must be connected to the internet before the app can be used, which is a little technical but the instructions are in the user manual. Once the charger is linked to Wi-Fi the app connects perfectly. Some chargers are not set up for ICS 2.0 lite by default (as they are mainly for commercial sites which use full ICS 2.0 management suite) but ICS technical were able to help with a very quick phone call to adjust its settings. This can also be done by the end user but again it’s a little technical.
Once it is set up you need to reprogram cards using the app and the charger card reader, which is actually very intuitive.
Don’t be put off by other reviews.
Smart charger
The app installed quickly and has all the features I need. Especially like the schedules to take advantage of my off-peak electricity price.
Great to keep check on how much energy being used by my EV (and what it’s costing me to run).
Also used the feature to sync a card to start charging which works great.
So far no issues
