# Use your model

After [uploading a model](/nx-ai-manager-v6.1.2/nx-ai-cloud-ui/upload-your-model.md) to the Nx AI Cloud, it becomes available to assign to any device in your account. Follow these steps to assign it and verify deployment.

## Step 1: Find the model in the catalogue

From the sidebar, open the **Models** page. Your uploaded model appears in the list alongside the pre-built catalogue models.

## Step 2: Assign the model to a device

Navigate to **Sites**, select an online site, then open the **Devices** tab and click a device. On the device detail page, click **Add a New Pipeline** (or the replace button on an existing pipeline) to open the model catalogue in assignment mode.

Find your model and click **Add to Pipeline**. The model is deployed to the server hosting that device in the background.

## Clone a pipeline to multiple devices

Once one device has a pipeline configured, you can copy it to other devices on the same site without opening each device individually. From the site **Devices** list, hover over a device row to reveal the **Clone This Pipeline** button.

     row, with a tooltip reading Clone this pipeline to other devices on the system"><figcaption><p>Hover over a device row to reveal the Clone This Pipeline button.</p></figcaption></figure>

Click **Clone This Pipeline**. A banner at the top of the page confirms which pipeline is being cloned. Tick the checkboxes next to the devices you want to receive the pipeline.

     top and a checkbox selected on the target device row"><figcaption><p>Select the target devices, then click Assign Pipeline to continue.</p></figcaption></figure>

A confirmation dialog warns that existing pipelines on the selected devices will be overwritten. Click **Confirm** to proceed.

     selected pipelines, with Confirm and Cancel buttons"><figcaption><p>Confirm the replacement: this overwrites any existing pipeline on the selected devices.</p></figcaption></figure>

After confirming, the pipeline is deployed to all selected devices. Once complete, all devices in the list show the cloned pipeline.

     Clone This Pipeline buttons visible on each row"><figcaption><p>All selected devices now run the same pipeline.</p></figcaption></figure>

## Step 3: Verify deployment

After assignment, the device detail page shows the active pipeline.

{% hint style="success" %}
The model is now running on the device. Open the Nx Meta Client, switch to the **Objects** tab for that camera, and you should see the model's output (bounding boxes, overlays, or counts) within a few seconds.
{% endhint %}

If nothing appears, check the [Troubleshooting](/nx-ai-manager-v6.1.2/support-and-troubleshooting/troubleshooting.md) section.
