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 a 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.
•

We recommend that you perform the test again to confirm the results.
