Is it possible when one camera detects motion, it starts recording & other cameras become ar

[gaylerc]

I have one outdoor Arlo Pro and two indoor Arlos.  I don't usually want the two indoor cameras armed for motion detection, to avoid having a lot of wasted video of me inside.  However, I would like to arm the two indoor cameras (for say 45 minutes) when the outdoor camera is triggered.  So, I'm looking for a way to have the outdoor camera armed for motion detection, then when it detects motion, start recording, but also arm the two indoor cameras to look for motion.  Can I do this?  Thanks for any help.  Chris

Yes. Read the FAQs here for modes and rules as well as the schedule. You'll need to create at least one custom mode with nested rules:

cam1 detects, cam 1 records

cam1 detects, cam 2 records

cam 1 detects, cam 3 records

Thank you for the response.  What I'd really like to do is:

Cam1 detects, then Arm Cam2 to look for motion (not record), & Arm Cam3.

thanks,

Chris

The rules don't do that. Each camera with a rule is already armed. Any camera without a rule is disarmed but could be triggered to record by a different camera. That's about 180 degrees from what you're looking for.

Expalin your use case - maybe something similar can be arranged.
