Dears,

 

I hope this post finds you well,

I bought Arlo pro 3 camera system, so 2 of those will work when there is motion till here we are okay

 

The issue is the 3rd camera I got with long cable to make it recording all the time on my USB HardDrive, but couldn't find this option and I hope there possbility I can do it otherwise the 3rd camera is useless for me.

 

Regards.

All wireless cameras have to be synced to the base. You can add USB devices to the Pro base to record whatever also goes to the cloud. You can't use the camera in a standalone mode.

Thanks jguerdat,

 

Just to make it clear

All the cameras are connected to the base no issue.

But I need only one to record all the time 24/7 to the USB drive and the others to recored when there is motion.

 

Is that possible or any kind of workaround, as my idea is to keep two camera in my staris so when there is motion it will let me know and one for the car to record 24/7

Tho the PRO base unit does have a USB drive option...it is for backup only ( will only record motion detected action and the same vid that goes to the cloud goes to the backup )

The Pro will not record 24/7 in any fashion...it can be armed to detect motion 24/7 and then record if it detects same
