# Starting the plugin

## Starting the plugin

After successful installation of Nx Server and Nx Client, open the Nx Client. The welcome screen lets you log in via Nx Cloud or connect directly to a server:

Once connected, an "Integrations" tab should be visible when opening a camera's settings via the context menu:

To start the plugin, enable it by toggling the switch next to the title, then click **Apply**. The plugin will initialize and detect available AI accelerators on the server.
