Two security lights and one camera and modes

Schnoomom — Sun, 09 Dec 2018 00:13:46 GMT

Hi! I've tried to figure this out but am struggling.
I have a Pro camera positioned by the shed.
I have two security lights: shed and garbage.

I have successfully set a custom mode that says if the shed light detects motion, it turns on and begins recording.

I now just want the garbage light to be set to motion and it turns it on (no recording).

I don't want the garbage light to come on during the daylight.

I do need any motion at the shed to set the camera to record no matter day or night.

I don't want to set the system to Armed because I always want the shed motion to trigger recording but I don't need the garbage to go on whenever there is motion.

I hope this makes sense. And I hope someone can help me figure out these settings.

Thanks!

First thing is the lights will NOT come on in daylight ( built in light sensor ) tho they will detect motion

You must armed the bridge sytem for the lights to be active and/or the camera.

So you can either have light detect motion and start the camera or the camera detect and start the lights..I find the light tend to be a bit more sensitive to motion.

So I would set up a mode that arms light A and motion triggers that turns on cam A to record and Light B

hope this helps
