Upload Audio Messages to Intercom
Learn how to upload the audio messages to your Verkada Intercom
Audio messages are a convenient way to inform people who try to enter your building. ****
Configure audio messages
You can upload these types of automated audio messages to your Verkada Intercom, where they can play when certain conditions are met:
An Offline message plays when the device has no internet connection and the call button is pressed.
A Lockdown message plays when there is an active lockdown and the call button is pressed.
A No One Home message plays when the call list has been exhausted
You can toggle these automated messages in Verkada Command and use the default messages, record your own message, or upload your own .wav or mp3 file, up to 20 MB (about 2 minutes of audio).
You can configure all automated message types individually or globally (applies to all Intercoms in your organization).
