5.2 Assign Devices
Before a device can be used to record or stream footage, it must be assigned to an already-created user.
This ensures that all footage can be traced back to the user who recorded it. If a device is undocked without
being first assigned to a user, it will not record any footage.
To assign a device:
1. Navigate to the Devices tab.
2.
Select the Search Devices pane.
3. Filter the devices as necessary, and click Find Devices.
4.
Find the relevant device, and click Assign Device next to it.
This device must be connected to VideoManager and unassigned. To unassign
a device, click Return Device.
The Assign Device dialogue opens. Users must do the following:
5. In the Operator Name field, enter the name of the user who will be recording
with this device. This must be a valid username on VideoManager.
If the user's name does not appear in the dropdown menu, they do not have the ability
to operate devices. This is due to the roles they inhabit. Their roles must be changed
before they can use a device.
6. Select which Assignment Mode the device will use.
There are two types of assignment - pool issue, when a user is given a device for
a one-off trip, and personal issue, when a user is given a device that they will use
