Quickly add devices to the Mobile Client by scanning their QR codes
Overview
This guide explains how to add devices to the Guarding Vision Mobile Client using QR code scanning. This is the recommended method for adding devices as it allows you to receive alarm event notifications.
QR codes can be found in several locations:
- Printed on the device label (typically on the back cover)
- In Guarding Vision software
- In iVMS-4500 client applications
- On device web configuration pages
Prerequisites
Before scanning QR codes:
Access control devices must be activated and configured through other clients (like Guarding Vision software) before adding to the mobile app.
- Ensure the device is powered on
- For access control devices, complete activation through Guarding Vision software first
- Have the device verification code ready (found on device label)
Steps
1. Start QR Code Scanning

2. Scan the QR Code
Method 1: Scan Physical Label
- Align the device's QR code within the scanning frame

Method 2: Scan from Photo Album
- Tap the gallery icon in the scanner
- Select a saved QR code image from your phone's photo album
- The app will extract and process the QR code
Make sure the QR code is clear and well-lit for successful recognition.
