I have an Arlo Pro2 camera on my garage that captures a clip and sends an alert every single time a car goes by.  I also have an Arlo Video Doorbell which seems to capture alerts as I'd want it to.  I have tried adjusting the sensitivity of the garage camera/the Pro, but I still get alerts from cars driving down the street 40+ feet away.  Is there a way to get alerts only from my Video Doorbell and not my Pro 2?  The Pro 2 is battery-powered with an Arlo solar charger.  I know that if hard-wired, I could set activity zones and limit the area captured for alerts, but I do not see how this is possible at this juncture.

 

Thanks everyone!

You can adjust the rule for the Pro 2 to not send notifications (but still record). https://kb.arlo.com/42/What-are-modes-and-rules-and-how-does-Arlo-use-them

 

It's best to leave the default ARMED mode alone, and create a custom mode for this.
