Capability

Equipment identification, serial numbers and fault codes

Most wasted service visits start with an unidentified machine. Guided capture makes identification a required step rather than a hopeful phone question.

No app. No account. No video call.

How is equipment identified before a technician travels?

The capture flow prompts the person on site to photograph the type or serial plate and to show the display, control panel or warning indicator. The service team can then confirm the exact model, revision and configuration, interpret the fault code against that equipment, and prepare the correct parts before anyone travels.

The typical situation

The part ordered fits the previous generation of the machine, and the visit becomes a measuring exercise.

Who records the video

The customer, the machine operator or the technician on site.

What is captured

  • Type and serial plate photograph
  • Model, revision and configuration details
  • Displayed fault or warning code
  • Control panel and indicator state
  • Installation context and access

How the service team uses it

  • Confirm the exact equipment before dispatch
  • Match the fault code to the correct manual
  • Check warranty and contract status
  • Order the correct part first time

Operational outcomes

  • Right parts on the first visit
  • Fewer aborted visits
  • Accurate warranty decisions
  • Shorter diagnosis time

Outcomes depend on your own service operation. We do not publish savings percentages that have not been measured with you.

Two directions of video

Before dispatch, and from the field.

The same structured approach is used in both directions, with different capture steps.

01 Customer or site → Service team

  1. Service request received
  2. Guided video link sent
  3. Customer or site contact records
  4. Service team reviews
  5. Resolve remotely or dispatch correctly

02 Field technician → Head office

  1. Technician opens the job
  2. Guided capture on site
  3. Checklist and readings
  4. Before and after evidence
  5. Completion record reviewed centrally
