Geo Fencing and Schedule working in parallel

What would be a great feature is to keep geofencing on and being able to have the schedule work at the same time. So it’s all ways on in the evening and works when I drive away. I don’t want to manually have to set it every evening if geo fencing is selected.

You can set the "home" and "away" modes to whatever you like.

You can adjust the modes to do whatever you want for home and away.

I have home set to "schedule" and away as "armed".

I then tweak the schedule to activate various modes throughout the day.

You can play tunes on the settings to achieve pretty well anything you like.

Maybe I don't understand what is going on at your end. But I can't think of anything that requires me to make manual adjustments.

Hi,

Same issue, but I am not sure if this provides the solution for me.

I have created a night time mode and the cameras work outside on a schedule from 8-6am. For the other daytime hours I would like to geofence all the cameras. I have attempted to create a mode but can’t seem to get the cameras to cooperate so that when I leave the property all the cameras activate when I leave and deactivate when I return.

Could you please explain how I create a geofence or the schedule. Alternatively, having geofencing avaibke in the schedule would solve my and others issue.

Thanks.

It works the other way round.

You have the schedule available in geofencing.

Set up geofencing for whatever you want to happen when you are away and a schedule for when you are at home.
