Individual Camera Setup

italoswiss — Thu, 09 Nov 2017 16:13:58 GMT

Is there anyway to set up my Arlo Pro2 cameras individually without any hardwiring?
There is no option for the cameras if not connected to the wall socket.
Example: I got 4 cameras, 3 outside and 1 inside the house.
I want my 3 outside cameras to trigger the siren ones motion is detected and the one in my house no.
Especially at nighttime’s!
Please let me know if there is anything I can do or if there will be an firm update.
Thank You Arlo

Go into your modes and there on a per camera basis you can select which will and which won't sound the siren.

You do realize that these cameras are battery powered, right? Use of wall power is totally optional.

I do.... but the problem is, if you don’t plug it in then you got no options to individually program wich will trigger the siren and wich ones don’t.
That’s like a glitch in the Arlo System.

It only works while plugged in otherwise it won’t be possible to split the siren between 4 cameras.

What only works while what's plugged in to where?

The cameras have the same siren feature set regardless of how they are powered.

^^ Agreed. It's all in your modes and rules.
