Get Started with Verkada Intercom Set up and connect your Verkada intercoms Updated over a week ago

Required. You need Org Admin and/or Site Admin permissions for your Verkada Command organization to complete these actions.

What you need

Create a site

Sites are the logical way of grouping and managing devices within your Command organization. Site-level permissions make managing and viewing your devices easier. See Manage Your Sites and Subsites for more information on site creation and management.

Add an intercom

At least one intercom needs to be added to Command before you can see the Intercom tab in the All Products menu. Intercoms can be added to Command from the Devices page. See Add an Intercom to Your Site for more information.

Connect a door

You can pair an existing access-controlled door or wire a door to the intercom that can be unlocked by an intercom receiver. See Configure a TD52 and Wire a TD52 Video Intercom for more information.

Configure receivers

Receivers allow you to answer calls from an intercom and unlock any associated doors. See Add and Configure Receivers in Intercom for more information.

Licensing

Every intercom you manage in Command will need a license. Verkada licensing is applied for each Command organization, and the licenses co-term to a single expiration date. Your licenses may have been automatically added if you claimed your devices via order number. Otherwise, manually add the licenses from the Admin page. See Manage Your Licenses for more information on adding and managing licenses.

Connect your intercom

Recommendation. While Verkada intercoms are considered low-voltage devices that do not require a certified electrician to install, we strongly recommend you work with a system integrator or other professional for installation.

Please refer to the intercom setup guide for instructions on mounting and wiring the door port.

Power and network

Verkada intercoms use Power over Ethernet (PoE) for power and communication over the LAN. In most cases, intercoms will connect directly to an 802.3af PoE standard switch. PoE injectors can be used when a PoE switch is not available. See the intercom’s datasheet for more information.

Check network settings

Verkada intercoms are designed to be plug-and-play. However, if your environment includes a firewall with custom rules and policies, you may need to make some configuration changes to get your access controllers connected to the cloud. See Intercom Network Settings for more information.

Roles and Permissions for Intercom

Roles and Permissions for Intercom

Learn more about Verkada Intercom roles and permissions

Updated over a week ago

This article describes the set of roles and associated permissions for Verkada Intercom.

Verkada intercoms setup guide v1

Verkada Intercom permissions determine who can receive calls, view intercom video, and unlock intercom doors. Intercom permissions depend on your site-level permissions, and whether you’re configured as a Receiver.

At a high level, these are the permissions granted to each level of Intercom devices:

Site-level roles

Receiver

Required. You must be configured as a receiver to receive calls.

If you’re a Verkada Intercom Receiver, you have the baseline receiver permissions (as shown above). These baseline Receiver permissions combine with site-level permissions to determine overall intercom permissions within a certain site.

For example, if you’re a Receiver for a particular intercom, and a Site Viewer, you get all the Receiver permissions, in addition to the ability to view historical video and events.

Note: Receivers, such as Desk Stations and Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) phones are not tied to a Verkada Command user. This means that the user can only get Receiver permissions, regardless of the user’s site-level permissions.

Regardless of their site-level permissions, a Receiver can:

Live-View Only

Site Viewer

Site Admin

.

Verify a user’s eligibility to receive Verkada Pass calls

.

Set Org Admin permissions

Revoke Org Admin permissions

.

Set site and subsite permissions

You can set site and subsite permissions by adding a user, a group, or by existing users and groups.

Add a user

Add a group

Existing users and groups

You can set the site and subsite permissions for existing users and groups by managing the user roles or the sites.

Intercom Network Settings

Learn about the required network settings for Verkada Intercoms

Updated over a week ago

This article outlines the required network settings that your Verkada Intercom needs to communicate with Verkada Command. For more information on the required network settings for other Verkada product lines see Required Network Settings.

Note: Verkada devices are incompatible with LANs that require proxy servers or Secure Socket Layer (SSL)/Transport Layer Security (TLS) inspection. If either is in use, a bypass for all Verkada devices must be implemented for Verkada devices to communicate with Verkada Command.

Status LED

A flashing blue status LED on the top of the intercom indicates the intercom is not communicating with Command. If you see this behavior, check that the network is set up correctly with the intercom’s requirements. If the problem persists, contact Verkada Support.

IP address

Intercoms must be assigned an IPv4 address to communicate on the LAN and to Verkada Command. Intercoms use Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) and User Datagram Protocol (UDP) to obtain their IP addresses and network configurations.

If you require your intercom to have a specific IP address, create a DHCP reservation using the device’s Media Access Control (MAC) address (found on the device’s label).

Domain Name System

Intercoms use the DNS server to resolve Verkada’s fully qualified domain names (FQDN) to IP addresses to communicate with them. Your DHCP server tells the intercom where the DNS server is on the network and the intercom communicates using UDP port 53.

Note: DNS over HTTPS (DoH) is currently not supported.

Power

Intercoms are powered through Power over Ethernet (PoE). This means the network switch needs to provide power to the intercom, or a PoE injector needs to be utilized. For specifics on power requirements, see the Intercom datasheet.

Firewall settings

Intercoms require access to many endpoints to ensure they can communicate with Command and all features will be accessible. Many customers may want to allow the intercoms to communicate with the general required endpoints.

These are the general domains to allow, applicable for all organization-regions:

Region: United States

Standard Verkada Endpoints

NTP Endpoints

Streaming Endpoints

Calling Endpoints

Access Control Endpoints

Cloud Backup Endpoints

Region: Europe

Learn how to mount the Verkada TD52 Video Intercom

Updated over a week ago

Use this article to learn how to mount a Verkada Intercom (TD52). Once you complete the mounting, you can connect the TD52 to the network.

Before you begin

You can mount the TD52 using a flush mount or using a mounting bracket. We recommend that you verify the contents of your box and make sure you have the tools you need

Contents of your box

Tools you need

Choose your mounting option

Whichever mounting option you choose, you should remove the front cover of the TD52 to access the screw holes that allow you to install on a mount.

Use a flush mount

The TD52 comes with a flush mount in the box. You can use the screw holes of the flush mount to mount the Intercom (see image below for visual):

Mount directly to a wall

Use a mounting bracket

You can use the mounting bracket to install the TD52 on to various surfaces that the flush mount plate cannot, where they’re typically used to mount the TD52 on an exterior surface.

I’m having issues connecting my DVR to my phone.

Possible Fixes:

1.Please go to Menu-Configuration-Network and under the General tab make sure enable DHCP is selected, if it is not enabled then select enable and apply. If you had to enable it, restart the NVR and try the P2P setup again.

2.If you are still having issues, make sure DDNS is NOT enabled(unchecked). If DDNS is checked, uncheck it and apply then go back to Platform Access and disable P2P and apply. Once both are disabled, do a power cycle and reboot the unit. After the unit restarts enable P2P again, and do another power cycle.

3.Go to Extranet Access, Platform Access or DDNS and make sure LaView P2P is selected then apply, also make sure “Enable Stream Encryption” is disabled.

.

If setup correctly NOIP will Dynamically update the IP as needed on its own. NOIP is a subscription service so if you do not have a subscription you will need to manually re-apply for your DDNS once every month.

.

.

.

.

To enable this on older DVR’s pre 2015 you may need to go to Settings > Network > Advance Settings > DDNS and Double click on the setting then Enable it.
