Arm only outdoor cameras connected to an
optional SmartHub or base station
Your Essential Indoor Camera doesn’t require an Arlo SmartHub or base station. If you use
an optional SmartHub or base station with your Arlo cameras, you can add a mode to arm
only your outdoor cameras and disarm your indoor cameras. This is useful if you want Arlo to
monitor outside activity, but you don’t want to record yourself while you’re indoors.
Note: You can also set a schedule when your cameras are armed or disarmed. See Schedule
when your camera is armed on page 39.
To add a mode to arm outdoor cameras and disarm indoor cameras:
1. Open the Arlo Secure App.
2. Tap Mode.
3. Select your optional Arlo SmartHub or base station.
