QR Code Anchoring just stays in scanning mode

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

I've created a guide and when trying to anchor it to my environment it just keeps staying in scanning mode.

I have verified that my QR code meets all the requirements outlined and it just doesn't seem to get recognized.

I've opened D365 Guides on my Device, I open the Guide that I would like to anchor as an operator, then see the "scanning" message and outline to align my physical QR code with. Nothing happens when aligned and I have tried moving in and out, the green squares match my physical print out exactly.

I have no idea what I am doing wrong.

    Hi amab

    Ugh...that's frustrating.

    Can you check to make sure that you've granted Guide permissions to the camera on the device via settings.
