What is the best setting?

Gazbrob — Mon, 16 Dec 2019 12:38:40 GMT

Hello,

I have recently installed my three Arlo Ultra cameras and have been setting up the modes.
I currently have it set to ‘Geofencing’ so when I’m home it records motion but doesn’t notify me and when I’m away it records and notifies me.
I would like it so it does this however I would also like at night say 22:00-07:00hrs I would like it to notify me of motion whilst I’m home asleep.
Is this possible with geofencing activated?

Thanks,
Gaz

Geofencing uses an AWAY mode and HOME mode setting....

These can be default modes or custom and also scheduled.

Alerts can be set on or off in the modes.

Just remember when you set up the schedule, any schedule that goes thru midnight must be broken into two parts.

In your case 2200 to 2359 and then next day at midnight to 0700
