Devices

Before you start

The device must reach DG over the LAN. Device viewing/revocation permissions are required.

Steps

  1. Search by user, name or UID and check platform, version and last seen.
  2. Obtain pairing QR/address from configuration, set the App connection and sign in with a worker account.
  3. For lost or retired devices verify the target and revoke tokens; sign in again when reuse is intended.

Verify the result

The App can access the worker's assigned work and the last-seen time updates.

Notes and examples

A phone's own 127.0.0.1 is not the server. Use a reachable LAN address and numeric port.

Limitations

TOTP-enabled accounts cannot use device login. App DG access requires Std or above; DG itself does not check subscriptions.

Troubleshooting

Check network, server address, port, firewall and account first. For missing work check its worker assignment; never include passwords in reports.
