Hello, I've armed my Arlo Pro 2 wire-free camera, set detection level to 100%, and set it to record when it detects motion.  The attached photo is a snapshot of the camera's field of view.  But the camera doesn't record anything... as if it's not detecting anything.   I've walked to and from the center of the attached field of view, even waved my arms.   Still nothing.  What am I doing wrong?   If I need to create a tighter "zone," how do I do that with this wireless camera?  Thanks.

Confirm you are setting the 'sense' level in the arming mode and NOT in settings ( which is for test purposes )

How far are you from the camera when you are testing the motion detection?

Yes, the Pro and Pro2 has a range of 25 ft to detect people, the Older Arlo HD maxs at 20ft.
