Scan a QR code

You can scan QR codes with the in-cab lens. This triggers a QR Code event which is sent to the cloud with the QR code as metadata.

To review the event media and time stamp information, see Review events. Metadata saved from the QR code can be retrieved through the Developer Portal retrieve event and retrieve list of events API calls.

There are two ways to scan a QR code on the dashcam:

Scan a QR code through the main screen

When the QR Code event is enabled, a QR code icon appears on the dashcam screen. When the event is disabled, the QR code icon does not appear on the dashcam screen.

To scan a QR code through the main screen of the dashcam:

  1. Press the QR code icon at the top left of the dashcam screen.

    The dashcam beeps for ten seconds or until a QR code is scanned.

  2. Within ten seconds, scan the QR code using the in-cab lens.

    A success message is displayed on the dashcam screen.

Scan a QR code through the driver menu

When the QR Code event is disabled, the option to Scan Documents appears on the screen but does not create an event. For more information about the driver screen, see Navigate the dashcam screen.

To scan a QR code through Scan Documents in the driver menu:

  1. When you are in the parked vehicle with the parking brake on, the ignition on, and the door closed, press the touchscreen of the dashcam to view the PIN screen.

  2. Enter the driver PIN to unlock the dashcam.

    Note

    You can get the driver PIN for the dashcam you're using from the person who administers them in your company.

    The main menu appears similar to the following:

    The dashcam beeps for ten seconds or until a QR code is scanned.

  4. Within ten seconds, scan the QR code using the in-cab lens.

    A success message is displayed on the dashcam screen.
