2. In the device details:
   Add the IP address of the Eth-B4 Link as the IP of the camera.
   The Port is 5463.
   Set the Camera ID to match the camera number.

   The Device ID needs to match the Device ID number of the camera you are connecting it to. If you have your set up includes multiple types of cameras using different device cores (example: a Red and an Arri camera), make sure the Device ID for each camera is unique to help tie it to the B4 Link and lens.
