Set Up Your System
Make sure that side-to-side trac crosses Arlo’s field of view. Arlo’s
motion sensor is much more sensitive to side-to-side movement across its field
of view than to movement directly toward or away from the camera. The best
area for motion detection is 5 feet to 20 feet (1.5 to 6 meters) from the camera
position.
For best results, position the camera so that the path of expected motion crosses
Arlo’s field of view and does not head directly into or away from the camera. For
example, if you want to detect motion near a couch, place the camera to the side
of the couch, rather than above it or opposite it.
You can use the Motion Detection Test to verify if motion can be detected in a
camera’s current placement. The camera’s LED flashes amber when motion is
detected. Go to your camera’s Settings page to turn on the Motion Detection Test.
Position Mode
Position mode is available only when the camera is not streaming, recording motion,
or in Motion Detection mode.
¾ To place your camera in Position mode:
1. Tap the Arlo icon
on your mobile device.
If you are using a computer, enter arlo.netgear.com in the address bar of a
browser.
If you are using a mobile device that supports Touch ID, you are prompted to
enable Touch ID or skip.
2. Tap or click Settings.
The Settings page displays.
3. Under Camera Settings, select the camera to position.
4. Tap or click Position Mode.
The camera starts streaming video.
Note: In Position mode, the camera streams video as fast as possible, without buering,
so that you can aim the camera while watching on a smartphone and make near real-time
adjustments to the camera position. This means that you might see lower-quality video
while the camera is in Position mode.
