Arming Multiple Cameras

SED_Ohio — Tue, 31 Jan 2017 23:22:38 GMT

I have two Arlo wireless cameras on one base station. The first is on the front porch and the second is pointing to the back yard. I would like it so if either camera detects motion, both start recording. When I am configuring a mode, I only get to select one camera and one action. How do you do this?

Nested rules. Mode tab, click on your base a create a new mode. You'll create a rule for one camera. Save and reedit it to add cameras and rules. This is what you'll want to end up with:

Cam1 detects, Cam1 records
Cam1 detects, Cam2 records
Cam2 detects, Cam1 records
Cam2 detects, Cam2 records

Set up a custom mode
Create 4 rules

Rule 1 - front porch motion triggers front porch to record video

Rule 2 - front porch motion triggers back yard to record video

Rule 3 - back yard motion triggers back yard to record video

Rule 4 - back yard motion triggers front porch to record video
