<p class="callout success">***Tip**: To test whether the charging station has been successfully integrated into the portal, press "Charger overview". Here you can now select your charging station and the last connection should now be displayed under "Last received data". If you see data that is a few minutes old here, the integration has been successful.*  
After a short time, the charging station should show the successful online status with the green icon. If a charging station is offline for a certain period of time, the icon will change to red.</p>
