Wavestore has announced the release of Wavestore V6.42, the latest version of its open-platform video management system (VMS).
According to the company, the new release will deliver deeper automation, enriched third-party integrations and enhanced flexibility for modern security environments.
The new release features automatic camera updates, immediate Break Lock override, precision control via 3Dconnexion SpaceMouse, a new SDK for partners, expanded ONVIF compliance and virtual server support.
The company notes that V6.42 empowers security professionals to streamline workflows, maximize uptime and unlock actionable insights.
Wavestore highlights that the release underscores its commitment to simplifying security operations through intelligent automation and open integration, ensuring each component of the surveillance ecosystem works harder and smarter.
The company states that interoperability remains at the heart of its open philosophy with V6.42 extending support for ONVIF Profiles S, M, T and G across WV2 cameras.
This comprehensive compliance simplifies multi-vendor deployments and ensures performance.
Wavestore states that keeping cameras patched and secure can be a constant drain on resources, so V6.42 introduces seamless firmware and software updates directly from the server for Wavestore Vision 2 (WV2) cameras.
By automating maintenance tasks, security teams are able to eliminate manual update chores, reduce downtime and ensure every camera runs the latest, most secure build without interrupting live monitoring, Wavestore says.
The new release will also feature a Break Lock function.
Wavestore states that administrators can instantly override unattended setup screens, preventing any single workstation from halting progress and ensuring continuous, reliable access to system controls even when teammates step away.
V6.42 delivers support for the 3Dconnexion SpaceMouse joystick, allowing operators to pan, tilt and zoom.
The company explains that the customizable functions on the device accelerate incident response, reduce operator fatigue and simplify complex multi-screen video review workflows.
To help integrators and developers keep pace with evolving security needs, Wavestore says that it has unveiled a new SDK.
Technology partners can now build alerts, tighter event workflows and custom analytics modules directly into the VMS, creating unified solutions that grow alongside each customer’s requirements.
With cloud and hybrid architectures becoming standard, V6.42 brings ONVIF Profile S compatibility to Wavestore’s virtual server.
Wavestore states that IT and security teams can now scale their VMS across multiple sites within virtualized environments, enjoying centralized management, enhanced resilience and growth without sacrificing functionality.
For industries where weight data is mission-critical, such as logistics, manufacturing and retail, V6.42 links live video streams with case-weight measurements.
The company highlights that this integration delivers a single pane of operational oversight, enabling teams to verify loading accuracy, investigate discrepancies and drive efficiency with data-rich video evidence.
