Disarming Only One Camera

BudM — Sun, 24 Dec 2017 14:18:40 GMT

I have 3 cameras and want to keep all 3 on but want to disarm just one, while keeping the other 2 armed. I go into Mode and edit the Armed Mode. I have 3 Rules, one for each camera. When I try editing the rule for the camera I want to disarm, it won’t allow me to. If I try to uncheck the motion & audio triggers, it won’t allow me to save. If I check Do Nothing, it requires me to also check either Push Notifications or Email Alerts, otherwise it won’t allow me to save. I don’t want to be alerted when motion is detected when I’m home. I wish it would allow me to save these edit options. How can I get around this?

There's a curve to learning Modes...

Keep in mind 1) any camera NOT in an active mode is OFF 2) only ONE MODE can run at a time.

Also try not to edit the ARMED mode but re-create a copy so you can always go back and check it when issues pop up.

In you case you need a new mode for the two cams you want on

Use ADD A MODE, add cam A, then save... go back and EDIT the same mode to add the second cam B...SAVE.

(use the setting for each cam when creating to suit your needs)

When you want all cams, you can use ARMED...whne you want only A&B , use that mode above and C will automatically be off
