5.5.2 Edit Device Properties
Users can edit the properties of a device from its specific page. To do so:
1. Navigate to the Devices tab.
2.
Select the Search Devices pane.
3. Filter the devices as necessary, and click Find Devices.
4. Click > View Device Info next to the device to be edited.
5.
Click Edit Device Properties.
Here, users can edit:
l Device name - if this is changed while the device is disconnected from
VideoManager, the old device name will be overwritten once the device is
reconnected.
l Custom status - this allows the user to record notes about the device in ques-
tion - for example, if the device has recently been upgraded. All users can see
custom statuses, if they have the permission which allows them to view the
devices list.
l Touch assign? - this toggle gives the user control over whether the specific
device can be assigned using an RFID card. Depending on how the device set-
tings have been configured, it may only be possible to assign a device using
Touch Assign if its battery is full.
l Auto-upgrade - this toggle gives the user control over whether the specific
device follows the auto-upgrade rules determined from the Auto Upgrade Set-
tings section.
l Use static IP - if toggled to On, the device will use the IP address entered by
the user.
This toggle is only available to view if the device is assigned and disconnected from
VideoManager. If toggled to On, the device will be unassigned and the previously
assigned user can assign themselves another device.
