Basic Arlo, setting record time

TedL — Sun, 20 Nov 2016 19:26:04 GMT

My system records for 10 seconds after detecting motion. How do I set it up to record until motion stops or 300 seconds ? Just got my unit and not very smart !

thanks,

The quick answer is to use the Mode tab, click on your base and edit the Armed mode. In there is a rule for each camera. Edit each one and edit the Record Video section to change the recording time. Be sure to save at every opportunity.

The long answer is to create your own mode(s) using the Armed mode as an example. Note that you can only set up a rule for one camera when making a new mode. Save and then reedit your mode to add additional cameras. Again, save at each opportunity.

I have a 4 camera system, but can only set the recording time on two of them when editing them in the "armed" mode. The sliders are graded out. Please help.

You may need to remove them from Settings, My Devices and resync them.

Thank you, that worked. I synced them all the first time, but for some reason two of the cameras wouldn't allow me to set a recording time.
