Floodlight manual?

I'm interested in the new Arlo Pro 3 with the floodlight however I'm trying to find the options to set up the flood light. Is there a place to look at the possible settings? A manual? Screen shots?

Also, what about timing from detection to app alert? I currently have several Nest cameras and there is way too much lag between detection and alert. Thanks.

Have you checked the product info here (arlo.com)? Most, if not all, of your questions may already be answered.

As for lag, there's typically a 2-3 second lag between detection and recording due to the cloud-based nature of the beast. Postioning the camera properly (there's an FAQ here on this) as well as changing the motion sensitivity in the camera's modes and rules makes a lot of difference. It can be trial and error to hit the sweet spot but shouldn't take too long as long as you understand the concepts and potential limitations.
