I recently purchased the Arlo Pro 2 Security system and have installed 3 cameras which have been up for 5 days.  Everything has been working fine until today. The camera pointed at my front door was giving motion detection notifications every 1 to 2 minutes over a 3 to 4 hour period. When checking the library of pictures (and there were a lot), I could see no evidence of any motion whatsoever.  Any idea what the problem may be?

Could it be the angle of the sun or reflection of same?

 

Slowly lower down the sense level ( in mode ) till you get leass false triggers while still picking up what you want

It could have been related to the angle of the sun. Today was the first sunny day we’ve had since the cameras were installed. I didn’t realize that the sun could have an effect on the camera. I’ll try lowering the sensitivity level as you suggested. Thank you for the reply.
