Scenario Detail(s)

Charge Point (SUT)	Central System (Tool)
2. The Charge Point responds with a GetConfiguration.conf	[This step will be executing during the Before steps]; 1. The Central System sends a GetConfiguration.req
4. The Charge Point responds with a RemoteStartTransaction.conf	[This step will be executing during the Before steps]; 3. The Central System sends a RemoteStartTransaction.req
[If AuthorizeRemoteTxRequests = true (from step 2), send an Authorize.req.]; [This step will be executing during the Before steps]; 5. The Charge Point sends an Authorize.req	6. The Central System responds with an Authorize.conf
[This step will be executing during the Before steps]; 7. The Charge Point sends a StatusNotification.req	8. The Central System responds with a StatusNotification.conf
[EV driver plugs in the cable halfway.]; 9. The Charge Point sends a StatusNotification.req	10. The Central System responds with a StatusNotification.conf
