Hi,
I have had my MG ZS EV Trophy LR (the newer version) for a few weeks now and charge it at home from a 7.5kw EV charger which is controlled from an app.
Currently, the way I get the car to charge is plug it into the charger, tell the charger to start charging using its app and then tell the car to start charging using the MG app, at this stage the lights on the front of the car turn from blue to green and it begins charging. All good.
The problem with this is that (as far as I know) you can only have one device signed into the MG app, so my wife is unable to charge the car when I go away.
The charger will also allow me to programme it to charge at specific times of the night (when electricity is cheaper) which I want to start doing as soon as my electricity tariff moves across to one with cheaper electricity at night.
For both these reasons, I want to set the car to start charging as soon as the charger starts delivering power, without me having to go into the MG app to tell it to start charging. Can anyone tell me how to do this.
Apologies if someone has already asked this (please point me toward the answer!)
Thanks.
