I noticed that when motion is detected on the doorbell, the camera it is paired with still records even when the camera is set to be turned off.

Is this normal? Sounds like a bug to me...

Arlo Pro Camera - 1.092.0.19_26228 

Doorbell - 1.2.0.0_297_268

Base - 1.12.0.1_27940

 

I think all 3 are the latest currently.  I did first notice this when I added a new doorbell. I didn't take note of what the firmware of the doorbell was at the time.

Have you tried rebooting the base station & remove the camera from the device settings & resync it?
