Complex Arming

[trayes77]

I would like to be able to keep my two Arlo pro cameras armed all day and night and create more complex setups. For example, I would like to have my upstairs armed and Not activate the siren if motion had been detected. At the same time, have my downstairs camera be armed and activate the siren if motion has been detected between a certain time of : day 9am-4pm. After 4pm the camera downstairs will be disarmed.

Use the Mode tab, click on your base and create new modes that do exactly what you need.  Note that only one camera will be set up with a rule when creating a new mode so save and reedit the mode to add more cameras.  Each mode should be specific as to what cameras are in use (any camera without a rule is disarmed) and what the action is for the time period you desire.  Once your modes are created, use the schedule to set them up to run as desired.  Only one mode at a time is allowed - that's why each mode has to be set correctly for the time of interest.

Actually I found out how to do it. I wish Netgear would make a tutorial for first buyers. You can set multiple cameras for one mode. When you create a mode, then add a rule, and from there you can set multiple cameras for each mode.

trayes77,

This can be achieved through creation of custom modes and the schedule feature.

For more information on how to create custom modes/rules, see here: How do I create a mode for my Arlo Wire-Free camera?
