Authorize a scanner
Authorize a scanning device to check tickets at the door, using the key the device shows.
A scanner checks tickets only after you authorize it. The authorization names the device, its hours and the gate it works. Max Roth, the door lead at Harbour Events, authorizes every scanner before the doors open.
- Have the device in your hand, with the scanner app open.
- Open Door setup and press Authorize a scanner.
- Name the device, for example Main entrance 2.
- Set the hours the device may scan.
- Press Authorize it.
- Enter the key shown on the device.
The key is shown only once. Write it down only if the device needs it again. If the key is lost, revoke the scanner and authorize it again.
A scanner stops at the end of its hours. It cannot scan outside them, even when the gate is open.
Leo Diaz works the main entrance on the night of Rotterdam Rave. Max Roth names his device for that gate, so the door log shows where each admission happened.
To take a scanner out of use, read Take a lost scanner out of use.
