Motion Detection sensitivity

paintguy — Mon, 03 Oct 2016 01:57:35 GMT

I have one of my cameras outside facing the parking area of my house. Tonight when I got home with my daughter I went to get the mail and she was ahead of me and went inside. I looked at the video and it only shows me coming up the sidewalk and into my house. I have the camera set on 60% when motion is detected for 60 seconds. I have also set it to 80% with the same result. I am doing something wrong?

Hello yelena,

I see you made a post but the post didn't contain anything in it. What were you wanting to know about Motion Detection sensitivity?

Hi @paintguy ,

This video Arlo - Using Motion Detection Training Video provides helpful tips on how to position your cameras for better motion detection, especially around 00:30 seconds.

Hope this helps!

How do we fix the video to 80 sec and how do we change the sensitivity settings. Help

Check out the FAQs here which give you all the details.

Basically, use the Mode tab, select your base and edit your modes. The Armed mode is used by default but I'd suggest that you create your own custom modes for full control and leave Armed alone for troubleshooting purposes. All settings, including recording time and sensitivity, are in your modes and rules.
