One of my cameras is too sensitive, recording leaves dropping from trees or bushes moving from heavy breezes.  I currently have it set at 80 so want to, uh, de-sensitize it down to 50 or 40.  I am fine in navigating to the camera, armed, and the editing template for the camera.  HOWEVER, after I move the slider downward from 80 to 50 or 40 or wherever, I can see or find no "SAVE" button to make the changes stick.  I've tried going directly to "Log Out," but when I return, the slider has reverted back to 80.

 

Would anybody have some advice as to how I can make the sensitivity stay where I'd like?  Thanks.

R_Lowe,

 

After making changes, click "Back" and then "Save" will be located at the bottom of the screen.

I am forming a view that these cameras are actually unusable. The sun comes from behind a cloud - activates the motion sensor. This is happening every minute. This is the equivalent of a car alarm that goes off relentlessly - eventually people ignore it. I've tried turning the motion sensivity down to 5pc. Still it happens every minute. Nowhere near good enough arlo

That implies that you need to reposition/angle the camera.  Post a screenshot.
