Can you trigger/activate alarms on specific cameras and choose other cameras to be unactivated?

[Ages]

Hi! My question is, can you choose to enable (activate) alarm triggers on one or more Arlo Pro cameras using the same base station? My old setup was a base station with two Arlo Pro cameras. I recently purchase a package (Base station and two Arlo Pro 2 cameras). I removed the old Base Station and installed all four cameras on the new Base Station including an Arlo audio doorbell. Since we just got a puppy which we are house training we are constantly triggering the doorbell motion detector and two of the cameras at night. I would like to activate two of my cameras for motion alarm and deactivate the two other cameras (including Arlo doorbell) at night hours. Is this possible with one base station or do I need to install these groups on separate base stations?

Best regards,
Ages

You should investigate the use of custom modes and rules.

What are modes and rules and how does Arlo use them?

Create a Night mode. Set it to monitor just two cameras for motion triggers.

Then set up a Schedule that activates the Night mode as required.

How do I configure and use the Schedule option?

The number of base stations doesn't matter.
