Hi,
I am searching how to get a mode that automatically disarm specific cameras. There is options for armed / disarmed mode, scheduling or geofencing but it is all cameras at the same time. Is there a way for example to schedule / geofence the deactivation of specific cameras (interior ones for example) while keeping others armed (exterior ones for example). Thanks!

Amaury,

 

This can be done by creating custom modes and custom rules.

 

For more information on this, take a look here: How do I create a mode for my Arlo Wire-Free camera?

Thanks but it does not help. I saw those modes but I don’t see any trigger based on schedule or geofencing, only based on motion and sound detection + I don’t see « disarm such camera », only « do nothing » which is not what I am searching for. If I missed something, can you help with step by step procedure for example : when arriving at home or at 7pm, disarm camera 1 and camera 2. Thanks

Amaury,

 

After you've created your custom mode, you can then set that mode within your schedule or Geofencing for the desired behavior.

 

If you don't want a camera to trigger, simply do not schedule a mode containing a rule for that block of time within your schedule.

 

If you want camera 1 and camera 2 disarmed when you arrive at home at 7, insert a custom mode in the schedule starting at 7 that only includes rules for cameras you want to trigger (no rules for camera 1 and camera 2). If there is no rule for a camera within a mode, it will be "disarmed" when that mode is active.
