Arlo Pro Schedule activation

Bpferrante — Fri, 30 Dec 2016 19:24:31 GMT

So I set up my schedule for my Arlo Pro. I set it to start at 10:00 p.m. but when 10:00 p.m. came the cameras didn't turn on. The schedule is saved. I went outside to see if it would record and it doesn't. So do I have to manually turn them on and then the cameras will start turning on and off during the scheduled time?

What is supposed to happen at 10pm?

Is the time set correctly for your system?

The schedule ONLY controls the the on/off time of active MODE your using... If the settings in the mode are off, the cameras may not function as you think.

So, first , start the Mode you were using WITHOUT the schedule ( say you were using the default ARMED (all on )).

Activate Armed, and check the live view screen, you should see the "running man" over each camera as BLACK meaning ON ( if grayed, then its off )

If this works and the running men are black, go and test the recording by going out side...you may have to adjust the sense levels.

After all this, set up a 1/2 hr schedule to start in a short time, and wait till the schedule activates...check the running men and go out and test again.

Once your sure all is working re-set your schedule on

TIPS:

Only ONE mode can run at a time, any times not in schedule with an active mode listed will be OFF

you can not run a schedule thru midnight, it must be broken into two parts up to 1159PM and next day 12 midnight till when ever.
