Arlo Home Security Modes

djp33 — Tue, 25 Feb 2025 19:44:33 GMT

Recently installed all in one sensors to doors of house. If I am home during the day and want my cameras to still record if there's movement outside but I do not want the Alarm Siren to trigger if I open a door to go outside, what mode should i be on? Standby Mode shuts everything down, no recording no alarm. Arm Home Mode records movement and Alarm will trigger if a door opens and the same for Arm Away! Arlo cannot possibly have designed a system where a person is home, wants cameras functional yet cannot open their own doors with out a siren alerting the police of a break in?????

All three modes can be customized.

Go to Routines->Modes, and then select Arm Home. You'll see "device rules" for the cameras and the security hub that you can modify.
