Motion tiles for the Verkada Viewing Station (VX51 and VX52)

Updated over 4 months ago

The Verkada Motion Tile feature enables the viewing station to intelligently select video feeds that are most important and brings them into a dedicated tile. This designated motion tile switches to feeds where a significant amount of motion is detected, allowing viewers to quickly see important activity and take any necessary action. You can configure motion tiles to search for activity across one or more sites, or even across an entire organization.

Configure the Motion Tile feature on VX51

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

  2. Select a viewing station and click the right arrow (>) to open the selected viewing station.

  3. At the top right, click Manage Tiles.

  4. Under the camera, select the Motion Tile.

  5. In the Motion Tile Settings, you can define which cameras are eligible to display in this particular motion tile.

    • If you select Current Page, it makes all cameras on this viewing station's page eligible to be displayed on the motion tile.

    • If you select Current Page with no cameras added to the page, it causes the motion tile to display nothing.

  6. (Optional) Select sites or subsites to add to the motion tile.

  7. Click Save and your Motion Tile is ready to go.
