Set PTZ Autotracker
AI-generatedSummary
Enable or disable PTZ autotracking for a Frigate camera by publishing the selected ON/OFF value to that camera’s PTZ autotracker topic.
Inputs
- Camera (required) — Camera name as configured in Frigate.
- Value (required) — Choose ON or OFF; ON is the default.
- Await State Confirmation — When enabled, keep the WebSocket open and wait for the camera’s PTZ autotracker state read-back. Disabled by default.
- Confirmation Timeout (Ms) — How long to wait for the read-back when confirmation is enabled. Defaults to 5000 ms; clamped to 0–600000 ms.
Output shape
A single n8n item per input item, with a JSON object describing the publish.
Without confirmation, the object contains operation, topic, payload, and published: true. With confirmation, it also contains received, confirmed, stateTopic, and stateValue. A timeout returns received: false, confirmed: false, and stateValue: null; it does not fail the operation.
