Camera Scheduling, common by base unit?

jemanner — Tue, 27 Sep 2016 16:22:18 GMT

Please clear the confusion before I buy! Was just speaking with an Arlo user, and I am told all Arlo Wire-Free cameras connected to a common base unit must have the same schedule. Is this true? I wish my cameras to have different schedules. Is the solution to have multiple base units? As Arlo Q cameras do not require a base unit, can they assigned different schedules?

Your information isn't accurate. You can set up multiple modes with rules that include or exclude cameras as you wish. For instance, with 3 cameras, you could set one mode up with all 3, another mode with only one and yet another with two cameras. You can then plce those individual modes in your schedule so the 3 camera mode is active at night, the one camera mode when you're in the house and the two camera mode for when you're at work.

The Q cameras MUST have separate schedules right now - you can't integrate them into the wireless modes (or, I believe, even with mutiple Q cameras). You'd treat those essentially as a separate installation.
