I have had Arlo cameras for a few years now. 1 particular camera is mounted on a outdoor shower and shoots straight down a 25 ft walkway from my front door to the road. I have landscaping and a fence to the right of the walkway about 7 ft to the right. My issue is the sensitivity. At 80 on the previous arlow card driving by at the end of the walkway were never triggered. Should lowering the sensitivity? I’ve deopped it down to 40. Hopefully this will work without having to take this back.

Any ideas??? Thanks

Mpowered,

 

Lowering the sensitivity is a good place to start if you're experiencing unwanted triggers. You might also consider changing the angle of the camera placement so that areas where unwanted motion is occuring is out of the cameras field of view.
