Videon’s devices are managed via the Videon LiveEdge Cloud portal. The Videon remote access profile allows you to connect ZEN Master to the Videon cloud and choose a specific available edge device for each Remote Access entry. Then, you can use the configuration settings shown in ZEN Master to connect the device to ZEN Master using the device's UI. See the section, Connecting Device Using Remote Access.

To add a Videon remote access profile:

  1. In the main navigation, click Remote Access.

  2. Click + Add.
    The Create New Remote Access window is displayed.

  3. In the Info section, in the Name field, type a logical name for the Zixi enabled device.

  4. In the Tags field, select one or more of the predefined Tags from the drop-down list. Tags are used for access control. By selecting a Tag, you are relating this Remote Access to that Tag. Tags are associated with certain roles (through the Users & Roles screen), and roles, in turn, are associated with users and user groups. If you would like to create a new Tag, see Creating a Tag.

  5. In the Events Configuration Profile field, select from the dropdown list the profile that you would like to apply to this Remote Access. By default, the Default profile is applied. Events Profiles consist of a series of rules that determine precisely how various types of Events are logged and what results they trigger.

  6. In the Configuration section, select Videon.

  7. In the Access Token field, enter the Access Token generated via the Videon EdgeCloud interface.

  8. Click Load Devices.
    If the token is valid, the list of devices will appear under the Device field.

  9. In the Device field, select the desired device from the drop-down menu.

10.  Click Save.
