Arlo Pro 3 Floodlight Camera not recording or turning on floodlight

[ssmith335]

I have several Arlo cameras that have been working great for years. Recently purchased an Arlo Pro 3 Floodlight, got it connected to the base station, etc. However, it does not turn on when something is in front of it day or night, floodlight does not turn out automatically either. I can view and turn on the floodlight manually through the iPhone application. So my question is does this thing need a subscription to work? My other Arlo cameras do not and I do not have an active subscription.

Yes they need a subscription for cloud recording when the trial runs out. The Pro2 and older still have the free 7-day storage.
