Diagnostic Session

Use diagnostic sessions to help us troubleshoot eMRTD reading problems. When enabled, additional diagnostic data is collected and stored on the DocVal Server.

WARNING

Diagnostic sessions may store personal data temporarily for troubleshooting.

Quick Start

1. Install the App

2. Scan Diagnostic QR Code

Diagnostic Session QR Code

Alternative QR Code for iOS troubleshooting

Alternative Diagnostic Session QR Code (iOS: pacePolling enabled)

When to use this QR code?

Some ID cards require a special polling mechanism to be detected on iOS devices. Use this alternative QR code if the iOS app doesn't detect your document at all when using the standard diagnostic session.

Technical details:

  • Only works on iOS 16+ devices
  • Android devices don't need this parameter (standard diagnostic session works for all documents)
  • If you're unsure which QR code to use, start with the standard one

3. Verify Your eMRTD

Perform the chip reading by following the instructions in the app. The app will collect diagnostic data in the background. Need help positioning your phone for NFC? Watch: kinegram.digital DIGITAL SEAL demonstration.
