Generate QR-code imports

How to set up a QR-code import for meter readings

This guide shows how to set up a manual QR-code import. With the Energinet app, one simply scans the QR-code in order to manually register a meter value. The QR-code links the physical meter to the meter in Energinet, ensuring data will be uploaded correctly.

• You will need to install the Energinet App to scan the QR-code with your phone camera.
• Data readings can only be sent in by someone who already has a Energinet user account and access to the meter you want to upload data to.
• We recommend you print out the QR-code and place it near the physical meter on-site.
• You can download the app here (Apple) or here (Android)

Part 1: How to generate a QR-code

1. Go to the meter in Energinet (web-based, not in the app)
   
   
   
   
2. Find the field 'QR-code' and click on 'Activate'
   
   
   
   
3. The options have now changed: Click on 'Get QR-code' 
   
   
   • You can also deactivate the import via QR-code by clicking on 'Deactivate'

Part 2: How to register meter data via a QR-code

2. Click on on 'SCAN QR CODE':   
   
   
   
   
   • The date and time wil be added automatically but can be adjusted manually.
   • Instead of scanning, you can add the Meter's QR-code ID manually as well.
     This ID looks like qr000000 and can be found on the information next to the QR-code which you generated in Part 1:
     
     
     
3. Add the correct value for the meter and press 'ADD READING'
