Offical’s Guide

The IDR is installed in a competitor’s vehicle, allowing all high G impacts that occur at events to be recorded and submitted to the owning ASN via the FIA IDR Official’s app. This allows for more thorough incident review and improved safety.

The competitor is responsible for installing the IDR in their vehicle, with the IDR arrow pointing to the front of the vehicle, and activating the IDR via the FIA IDR app.

It is the responsibility of the official to download and login to the FIA IDR official’s app, allowing the official to connect to the IDR and submit an impact report when an incident takes place at an event.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

DO make sure the competitor’s IDR arrow is pointing directly towards the front of the vehicle and advise if the IDR is installed incorrectly. View full installation instructions here.

DO ensure you have downloaded and successfully logged in to the FIA IDR officials app prior to attending an event as an official, ensuring you have allowed camera and location permissions.

DO notify the competitor that a replacement IDR is required if it appears to be damaged or the IDR QR code has faded.

DO read the FIA officials app guide prior to use and ensure you notify your ASN if you cannot gain access the the app using the passcode provided.

I am having trouble scanning and connecting to the IDR
Please ensure that:
1. You have allowed access to your bluetooth, location and camera settings within the FIA IDR app.
2. You do not move away from the IDR after scanning the QR code and before the data has finished uploading.
If you continue to experience issues in connecting to the IDR using the FIA IDR app following an incident, please remove the IDR, noting the driver and location details and contact idrsupport@impactdetect.com
How do I use the FIA IDR Officials reporting functionality?
Please view the full officials app functionality instructions here
I have no internet connection
If you have no internet connection, you can still connect with the IDR and complete an impact report using the FIA IDR app, upon submission you will be asked to retry submitting the report or select to upload it later when you have internet connection again. If you select the latter, you must relaunch the app when you have internet connection.
A competitor's IDR has been damaged in an impact
If you suspect a competitor’s IDR has been damaged in an impact, please remove the IDR from the vehicle, making a note of the competitor and their contact details, then email idrsupport@impactdetect.com to arrange a replacement IDR.
What is the 'IDR Inside' vehicle sticker for?
The IDR Inside sticker is affixed to the exterior of vehicles fitted with an IDR. The sticker is to help officials identify if a vehicle has an IDR following an incident. The QR code on the IDR Inside sticker links back to the FIA IDR website support pages.
The competitors IDR is damaged or the QR has faded
If the IDR is damaged or the QR code is faded, the IDR function and/or the ability for the IDR to connect with the FIA IDR app may be compromised. Please contact idrsupport@impactdetect.com
I can't remember my ASN passcode to access the app
Please contact your ASN who will issue you with their ASN passcode to access the officials functionality within the FIA IDR app.
I am an official and a competitor, can I use both versions of the FIA IDR app?
Yes, you are able to logout of the officials area if you have an IDR you wish to activate as a competitor. You must have your ASN access code to re-enter the officials area of the FIA IDR app.
What happens if I forget to take a photo of the incident?
The app requires at least one image to complete the report. If you have taken no images, take any photo using your phone, this will allow you to proceed with the report, you can then add as much information as possible in the ‘additional info’ section.
Can I use other apps whilst the impacts are downloading?
The sensor will download data in the background whilst you are using other apps but we recommend staying on the ID App.
Will the IDR ever 'turn off'?
No, the sensors have a 2-year lifespan, and are programmed to stay awake so they will never miss an impact.
Where does the report data go?
The reports submitted via the FIA IDR app are rerouted through a secure server and sent to the owning ASN in a PDF report format.
