Before you Begin
Set up your hardware before you begin the Verkada Command setup.
If you are using any of the second-generation intercoms, see the install guide before you continue.
Verkada reader
The second generation of Verkada Intercoms (TD33, TD53, TD63) all include a built-in reader. If you are using a TD52, see this article to learn how to install a reader and configure the device as a 1 door access controller.
Output wiring
The TD53 and TD63 both have a dry form C relay output that you can configure as an access controller. This involves wiring the intercom to an auxiliary power controller and a lock as seen below.
