Abstract: A central controller is configured to obtain a scan of a quick response (QR) code affixed to an internet-of-things (IoT) device. The central controller decodes the QR code to extract various operating parameters associated with the IoT device. The central controller then provisions a device controller for coordinating operation of the IoT device. The central controller configures the device controller based on the operating parameters, thereby allowing the device controller to coordinate operations of the IoT device in a device-specific manner. The central controller may then install the device controller on the IoT device, or cause the device controller to coordinate IoT device operations across a network. With this approach, a technician is no longer required to manually obtain IoT device operating parameters or input those parameters to a central controller, thereby streamlining the IoT device installation process.
