How do I use geofencing with cams that are synced thru the base station?

Truth2121 — Thu, 05 Jan 2023 17:52:22 GMT

I have 2 Arlo Pro 3 Floodlight connected thru the base station and I have 2 Arlo Essential Wire Free cams also connected thru the base station.

How do I set up individual geofencing modes for each cam that is connected to the base station?

Devices

2 Arlo Pro 3 floodlight cams (FB1001)

2 Arlo Essential Wire Free cams (VMC 2020W) and (H6)

Base station - VMB 4500r2

Short answer is that you can't. But you still likely can get the behavior you need. Can you give more details on what you want to do?

I would like some cams to use geofencing and some not to use it.

That would be set up in the GF configuration. You may need to create custom modes (if on the old interface) to do this. Set up a mode with only the cameras you want to use in it and select that mode in the GF settings as Away. Choose a different mode or the schedule for Home.
