Below you will find some basic info about how to work with QR-Patrol System.
In QR-Patrol's start screen there are the below options.
1. The first thing you need for working with QR-Patrol system is guards. These can be found by clicking the below icon.
Guards are always added by Terracom. Normaly, after your contact with us, we will add all needed guards for you.
In guards editor screen you can find which guards you have and make edits on fields [Guard name], [Kerveros code].
[Guard name] is an alias for every guard. This name will be shown in every report.
[Kerveros code] is used for linking all qr-code scans with the entity [customer] in our desktop events monitoring application called "Kerveros". If you don't use this application you don't have to fill anything for this field.
Important: After you make all changes in the grid, don't forget to press the [Submit changes] button, in order to save those changes to database.
2. After guards, there is a section called QR patrol points editor.
There is a section where you can insert, edit and delete the patrol check points.
This is how it works:
- Let's say you create 3 check points (A, B & C). The first column contains the patrol point code that will be printed in a qr code in a sticker. That sticker will be in the place where patrol personnel must check and invastigate. That code must be scanned by his mobile phone and our smart phone application.
- 3rd column is the patrol point id. This, unlike the patrol point code, is a human friendly code, like -001, -002, etc. This is used as a refference and for Kerveros (our desktop events manager application) use.
- The fourth column is the name of the point (Point alias). Let's say Mr. Smith's house - Entrance. This is a description off the place. Write whatever you like. This will be shown in patrol reports.
- Finally, in the second column, you define the code called Kerveros code. In QR-Patrol, this field is needed as a link between a check point and a kerveroslive.com user. Note that, you can create users that belong to you. Users can see the scans that are about them. One code can be assigned to many points. That means, a customer may have multiple check points (place A, place B, etc). (Read more about users hierarchy in Kerveroslive User hierarchy support page)
- As shown below, there are 2 functions that can generate check points:
In section A , user can generate points that belong to one user - Kerveros code. In section B you can generate a range of codes. Of course, you can alter, later, all Kerveros codes. This is just for your own convenience.
