VideoXpert® Professional v 3.17 Operations Manual

Managing Devices on a System
VxToolbox enables you to add a device or change device settings.
You must commission a device to view its video or to use its video or resources within VideoXpert.
VideoXpert typically commissions devices automatically when you add them to the system. In many
cases, commissioning a device requires a license; the type of license required depends on the type of
device you are commissioning.
Add or commission operations are available from the Devices tab for the selected system.
Commissioning information is shown in the Added/Commissioned ( ) column; you can expose this
column by selecting Commissioning Status from Show Data Columns in the filtering panel.
