Arlo not recording when motion detected

[ashdeangelis]

Lately I would receive notifications and clips in my library on my arlo, but now it won't even record motion unless you are right in front of it less than 1 foot away. 

I've set rules and attempted to put up the sensitivity but no luck. Restored it and reset it up. 

I'm confused on the rules where it states "no devices are available. All your devices are already in use in other rules."

Someone please help before I throw this at the wall.

Within any one mode you can only have one rule per camera that triggers the action required. That said you can have one camera trigger multiple cameras to record etc. Add a rule for each camera to record itself is the norm.

Armed mode is typically what users use although you have the option to create new modes for your requirements. E.g. set motion sensitivity to a lower value for windy days.

Now if only they could let you have multiple schedules it would be so much more useful.

I only have one camera and only have it in armed status. My mom has the same one and same settings and same amount of area, she lives next to me, and hers picks up from a further length and records. Hopefully it can go back to recording like it once had.

Try removing the battery from the camera for 10-15 seconds and then reinsert it.

If that doesn't help, try power-cycling the base station.
