Position your camera to detect motion in
specic areas
You can mount and aim your Arlo Pro 3 Camera in different ways to optimize the
camera’s ability to detect motion in specic areas. The lower two-thirds of the
camera’s eld of view is the motion-sensitive part of the image. Aim the camera so
that any motion you wish to detect appears within this part of the image.
If you want to monitor motion closer to the
camera, such as visitors to your front door,
mount the camera at least 6.5 feet (1.9
meters) high
*
and aim it so that visitors
appear in the lower two-thirds of the
image.
This angle works well to avoid motion alerts
for movement in the top third of the image,
such as vehicles driving by.
*At 6.5 feet (2 meters) or higher, we recommend using the Arlo Outdoor Mount.
