The intercom visitor directory is an optional method for providing visitors with a graphical interface for searching and selecting who they will call from the intercom.
With the intercom visitor directory enabled a business will be able to easily provide visitors a list of the available users or units using a QR code placed anywhere near the intercom. Visitors simply scan the QR code with their phones and are then given a temporary list of the available users for that intercom.
When the visitor initiates a call, using the mobile webpage, the intercom will then begin the call to that user or unit.
The available list of users is tied to the intercoms’ scheduled routing profiles, so any configured availability will be maintained between both the visitor directory and voice assistant methods of reaching users.
Note: To use this you will need to set up either Direct Connect profiles, Unit Connect profiles, or both.
Enabling the Intercom Visitor Directory
Note: You don’t have to enable this feature on every intercom.
Go to Devices > Video intercom readers.
Click to edit the intercom device to enable this feature on.
Click the Visitor Directory tab at the top of the page.
Toggle Enable visitor directory.
This will present you with a QR code, a download button so you can print it out, and the ability to regenerate a new QR code if the old one gets destroyed.
Now you can give your Directory a title, put in notes for the visitor, and select the values from the drop downs you want the visitor to see from the User directory and the Unit directory.
Intercom Visitor Directory QR Code Recommendations
The QR code image generated for the Intercom Visitor Directory can be incorporated into any signage or display needed by customers.
One option that could be used is to print out the QR code onto a weatherproof sticker to place near the Intercom.
An example of a simple-to-use solution would be the Printable Signs - Surface Safe Adhesive | Avery stickers are available in many different shapes and sizes and can be printed from inkjet and laser printers. Avery provides simple-to-use printing templates allowing you to print the QR code image generated from Control Center onto their stickers.
