Rules for modes
Each mode uses one or more rules to control your Arlo system. You can set these
options.
• Trigger device. The trigger device is the camera that detects motion or sound.
You can adjust the motion and sound sensitivity to minimize false alarms.
• Action device. The action device responds to motion or sound detection on
the trigger device. For example, you might want your backyard camera or your
driveway camera to trigger your door camera to start recording video. You decide
what action each camera takes when motion or sound is detected.
• Notications. When a trigger is detected, the Arlo can send you push
notications, email alerts, or both. You can also send email alerts to friends, family
members, pet sitters, or anyone who might need to respond when a camera is
triggered.
