Create a guest access QR code and choose its components in Boss’nX

A Boss’nX QR access opens a selection of site components to a guest: they scan the room’s QR code with their phone, without credentials. You choose the authorized components, give the code a label and add a location restriction if needed.

Intended for administrators and installers. To share the login page with a user who has an account, follow sharing the login link instead.

Before you start

• You have the Manage topology right in the relevant supervision.
• To restrict access to people on site, a position is required: the one saved in the site coordinates, or a point chosen on the map. Without either, creation remains blocked.

Open the creation window

Open Menu → Guest access, in the Administration family, then New QR code. On a tablet or phone, Menu is at the right of the bottom bar; the Boss navigation describes these entry points.

From Building, two other entries make it easier to identify the context:

• a zone may offer Create QR access; in this window, Existing codes is a tab on a small screen and a panel next to the creation on a large screen;
• a floor may offer Create code, with the tooltip Create QR from this floor.

Opening the window from a zone does not check its components, and the picker may show the rest of the site: always check the checkboxes.

Choose the authorized components

1. In Create room QR access, choose Assigned to select the components now, or Unassigned to prepare a code that you will assign later. An unassigned code gives access to no component.
2. In Assigned mode, search for a building part, a floor, a zone or a component.
3. Expand the rows with their chevron or by clicking the branch name, then check the components you want. The All checkbox selects the components of the displayed branch; Whole site acts on the visible search results.
4. Clear the search, then check the whole selection and the counter of selected components.

Changing the search does not uncheck components already selected outside the results: check the counter and clear the filter before confirming. When they are offered, the Independent and (no zone) groups gather the components not attached to any zone.

Name and generate the code

1. Fill in Code label. Text other than spaces is required, even if the field’s placeholder text contains “optional”. Replace the suggested name, Room QR, with a clear marker, for example “Visitor reception” (a fictional example).
2. If access must be restricted to people on site, check Location security and check the suggested position, as described in the location settings.
3. Click Create code once.

Check the result

1. When creation finishes, the Generated access panel shows the QR image and the Guest link:.
2. Click Close and find the label in the Codes list.
3. Click View QR to reopen the image and the link. For downloading and printing, start from this saved code.
4. To check the components actually accessible and their commands, open the access as the guest will, following open a guest access.

Cancel or Close leaves the window without erasing a code that has already been generated: to remove it, go through the archives. To assign the code later or limit the session duration, open Configure.

Troubleshooting

Message or symptom	Action
Select at least one equipment.	Check at least one component in Assigned mode.
Code label is required.	Fill in Code label.
Pick a location on the map — the site has no registered coordinates.	Choose a point on the map or have the site coordinates filled in.
No results	Clear the search and expand the right branch before concluding that the component is missing.
The form stays displayed or empties without showing the image	First check the Codes list to avoid creating a duplicate; an existing code can be reopened with View QR.

If the creation or the access remains uncertain, contact support@can-nx.com with the site, the label, the message and the attempts already made. Do not attach the guest link or the private QR code.
