I am trying to use the Arlo chime individually as an audio alarm for when my Arlo Cameras detect motion. I did not purchase the Doorbell and so I cannot find a way to change the setting on my chime. It’s loaded into my account through the Base station but has no path to change the sounds or motion detect alarm function. Do I literally have to buy the doorbell just to set my chime up to go off for my cameras?

Hi @Brianwells1989,

 

You are not required to have the Arlo Audio Doorbell in order to use the Arlo Chime.

 

To set the Arlo chime for the Arlo cameras, you can go to "Mode" > Choose your Base Station linked with your cameras > Tap the Pencil Icon on Armed > Tap on Pencil Icon for which camera you want to edit the rules for > Tap on "Add Device" > Choose your Arlo Chime.
