Pro 3 Wire-Free Security Camera System 7. Close the Arlo app, but don't log out. 8. Use the test button on your smoke or carbon monoxide detector to activate the alarm for 30 seconds. Compatible alarms sound continuously for 20 seconds in one of these patterns: • Smoke detectors with industry-standard T3 alarms emit three intermittent beeps, followed by a period of silence. • Carbon monoxide (CO) detectors with industry-standard T4 alarms emit four intermittent beeps, followed by a period of silence. Alarm Detection test results The following sections explain the test results. Alarm Detection is working You received an Audio Alert push notification from the Arlo app on your mobile device and a video clip labeled Smoke/CO alarm? is saved in your Arlo Library. This means that your camera is within range of your alarm, and your alarm is compatible with the Alarm Detection feature. Note: Arlo cameras use battery power every time they record, so it's important that you're aware when you have audio alert options turned on. You can purchase spare batteries and the Arlo Dual Battery Charging station, sold separately, if desired. Arlo recorded a video but didn't notify you If you don't receive and Audio Alert push notification, but video clip labeled Audio is saved in your Arlo Library, your camera is within range of your smoke or CO detector, but it did not recognize the sound pattern as a smoke or CO alarm. You might not be notified for these reasons: • Your smoke or CO detector did not emit a continuous T3 or T4 alarm pattern. • There is too much background noise or an echo where your camera is located. • Your alarm is not compatible with the Alarm Detection feature. We recommend that you perform the test again to confirm the results. Arlo didn't notify you or record a video The camera too far from the alarm to detect it.
