Measuring result
If the task requires entering a measurement result, you must choose whether to use a measuring device to obtain it or enter the result manually.
Entering measurement result manually
To manually enter a measurement result:
Click on the Enter value manually button.
Enter the measurement result in the displayed input field using the specified unit of measure.
If you want to cancel entering the measurement result manually and use a measuring device instead, click on the X-button in the upper right corner.
Once you have entered the measurement result manually, proceed to enter additional details and your signature.
Using the Measurement Device
Click the “Use measuring device" button.
NSnappy remembers the last measurement device used at each performance point. This means that you can usually simply start the measurement device by pressing its power button, and within a few seconds, the measurement results will start appearing on the screen.
If no measurement device has been previously used at the channel, you must first select a device by clicking either "Scan a QR code" or "Select device." Similarly, you can also switch the measurement device in use.
Choosing the device by QR code
To read the QR code, click on the Scan QR Code button to activate your device's camera and scan the QR code from the device nameplate.
Your device may prompt you for permission to use the camera. You must grant this permission in order to successfully scan the QR code. Once you have granted permission, you will see the camera view on your screen and can aim it at the QR code on the device nameplate.
When the QR code reader identifies a valid code, it will close and select the device.
If you haven't already started up the measuring instrument using its power switch, do so now to connect it and begin seeing its results on screen.
Choosing the device from the list
Under the heading Select device is the list of your devices.
Choose the correct device from the list by clicking on it. The selection box for the device will close, and the device will be chosen.
If you haven't already turned on the measuring device from its power switch, turn it on now so that it connects and its results begin to appear on screen.
Measuring with Sense and Sense IR
The detailed instructions for using the Sense and Sense IR can be found in the NSnappy Sense series user manual.
Sense and Sense IR measure the temperature and send a new temperature reading to the service every few seconds. The reading updates on the screen when the device is connected to NSnappy.
Once the temperature reading has stabilized and is no longer changing significantly, press the power button on Sense again or click the "Lock Result" button on the screen. This will lock the reading on the screen, allowing you to fill in other details of your measurement task and complete it.
Measuring with Hygi
Detailed instructions for using the Hygi can be found in the Hygi device user manual.
The Hygi analyzes one surface hygiene sample swabs at a time. The status of the sample analysis process is updated in the service, and you can see the progress on the screen. When the sample analysis is complete, you will see the result on the screen.
You can then fill in other information about the measurement task and complete it.
Attachment files
To attach files, click the "Choose file" button to include them in the task completion. On a mobile device, you can take a photo related to the task and attach it from your device's photo library. The process may vary depending on the model and features of your mobile device.
On a computer, a file selection window will open, allowing you to search for and select the file to be attached.

In the "Task remarks" field, you can enter additional information related to the task's completion, up to 1000 characters.
