  1. Ensure Nexus is in Live mode (in the Resources pane, click Go Live).
  2. In the System Resources tree, select the node whose properties you wish to configure:
    • Video Cameras node, for all digital video cameras
    • A sub-node, for a specific video camera
    Note that if you are configuring a Vicon video camera, the node will not become green until you specify the Destination IP Address.
    Also note that cameras with gray icons are connected to the network but are not contributing data. For example, if you have connected Vicon Vue video cameras, but your Vicon connectivity device does not support jumbo packets, the icons for the Vicon video cameras will remain gray. For more information and help with upgrading your system, contact Vicon Support.
