what are the features on the actual site that look like pause - I only know one is the take a picture - and I think the one that looks like pause repositions cameras - one looks like the sun??

The options in Live View are as follows (from left to right):

 

  • Magnification: Zoom in/out with the slider, pan with mouse or finger.
  • Pause button: Stop Live View.
  • Record button: Save clip to library (up to 30 minutes).
  • Snapshot: Take a screenshot and save it to the library.
  • Brightness: Adjust the EV offset of the camera by +/- 2 stops.
  • Full Screen: Enlarge Live View to full screen.

Vallorie,

 

Take a look at this article for definition of the icons you see on the cameras page: How do I interpret the Arlo camera icons?

Ok, let's try this again.

Icons from left to right when doing Live View are:

 

  1. Magnification glass -> Zoom in/out and pan.
  2. Double Bars -> Pause button.
  3. Circle with a dot inside -> Record button.
  4. Camera -> screenshot button.
  5. Sun -> Brightness adjustment/override.
  6. Two arrows pointing away from each other diagonally -> Maximize view/Full screen.

 

Here's how you operate them:

 

  1. Magnification glass (Zoom/Pan): Press to bring up zoom slider. When zoomed in, drag image with mouse (on PC) or finger (on smart device) to pan.
  2. Double bars (Pause/Stop): Press to stop/exit Live View.
  3. Circle with dot inside (Record): Press to record Live View and save clip to Library when pressing again or after 30 minutes (whichever comes first).
  4. Camera (Screenshot): Press to take a screenshot and save to Library.
  5. Sun (Brightness): Press to view brightness slider. Adjust slider to make image darker or brighter. Press icon again to save setting. You will not see the brightness change until you press the icon again to change the setting.
  6. Two arrows (Maximize view/full screen): Press to maximize Live View frame. Press again to go full screen.
