See Arm only outdoor cameras connected to an optional SmartHub or base station on page 31. 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. You can adjust the motion sensitivity to minimize false alarms. • Action device. The action device responds to motion 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 is detected. • Notifications. When a trigger is detected, the Arlo can send you push notifications, 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. Modes, Rules, and Alerts 28 User Manual
