Motion Detector, Detecting winds

jasminedinh — Mon, 29 Jun 2015 17:52:58 GMT

I just purchased my ARLO, It's great system. But I'm having issues with two of my camera. It triggering false motion dectetor (wind), how can I fix this issue? I did turn up my sensitivity to 100% but just now turned it down to 85%. Is 85% still a good percentage if someone broke into my home. Will it still detect? Help please. I just don't want to my battery life to drain faster as stated usuage life span of 4-6months.

Hi jasminedinh,

85% sensitivity is still fine since the sensitivity of my Arlo cameras are also on 85% but my place is not that windy. Based on our system, I found out that the firmware of your Arlo cameras are not on the latest version. I recommend you to have your cameras be updated to the latest firmware version. Kindly read these links below on how to update the firmware of your Arlo cameras:

Kindly post here to let me know if you have already updated the firmware of your cameras to the latest version so that I could verify.
