When disarming the base station, does that mean it is disarming all of my devices?

Under the mode tab on the app, the only device that shows is the Base Station for Arlo, Arlo Pro, Arlo Pro 2.  When disarm the base station does that mean it is disarming all of my devices?

First, click on the base listed in the Mode section to see your modes. Since you may have multiple bases or other cameras not using a base, each is listed separately.

 

If you mean the Disarm All Cameras button, that will in fact disarm all cameras in your system. If using more than one base, it affects all cameras, not just ones on a particular base. The catch is that then using the Arm All Cameras will set them to use the Armed mode (you can check this by clicking on the base to see your modes). This can be a problem if using custom modes, schedule and/or geofencing. In your case, it sounds like you've never set anything up for any of these so it's simply switching all cammeras off and back on.
