Configure a Non-Verkada PTZ (Pan-Tilt-Zoom) Camera

Configure non-Verkada PTZ cameras with Command Connector

Updated over 3 weeks ago

Command Connector allows you to add and control non-Verkada PTZ (Pan-Tilt-Zoom) cameras that support ONVIF Profile S standards. This enables operators to control camera movement directly from Verkada Command.

Add the camera to the Command Connector before you begin.


Configuration

You need Site Admin permissions to modify camera settings.

  1. In Verkada Command, go to All Products > Cameras .

  2. Select a non-Verkada camera to configure.

  3. On the right, click Settings.

  4. Under General > Camera Type, click the dropdown and select PTZ Camera.

  5. Return to the camera feed to view the PTZ controls overlay for your non-Verkada PTZ.

  • PTZ commands sent from Command Connector rely on ONVIF Profile S PTZ services.

  • Advanced PTZ operations such as Sentry Mode and Contextual Triggers require a Verkada PTZ.
