Arlo Sensitivitity

[McDonald]

I have cameras mounted on the second floor (exterior) looking at the driveway and backyard.  The motion detector never goes off when we go to our cars or leave or when deer are in the backyard.  How can the sensitivity be increased?

IMO, the Arlo/Arlo Pro are really good to a max of about 20ft +/- for people... sense level will make a difference to a point as long, as your not getting to many false triggers.

Biggest issue is that many try to cover to large an area with the camera .... I try to limit the coverage to the PIR sense range ( because you can see it on the wide angl lens does't mean the PIR will )
