Pro2 camera motion sensitivity

[bech53]

Arlo Pro 2 camera motion sensitivity,,,,,,I am confused why there are two places to adjust motion sensitivity for a camera. one is in device settings, device utilities, then motion detection test. The other is when select a camera listed under a particular mode, if motion on.....motion is detected, then adjust sensitivity. 

These settings are independant of each other. What are both sensitivity adjustments used for and when?

The motion detection test is .... well, just a test.  The settings there are experimental.  The idea is that you play with them until you find the setting that you like - which you then use as the trigger in a mode rule.

So these settings aren't saved anywhere when you exit the test.

It is a bit complicated (modes in general can get pretty complicated).
