Setting Up Auto Arm on Arlo Security System
- Ensure that your Arlo security system is properly installed and connected to the internet. This is crucial as the scheduling feature relies on network connectivity to function.
- Open the Arlo app on your mobile device or access the Arlo website on your computer. Log in using your credentials to access the main dashboard.
- Proceed to the Modes section. This is where you can customize how and when your Arlo system is armed or disarmed.
- Select the base station or camera you wish to schedule an auto arm or disarm mode for. Each device can have its own specific schedule if needed.
- You will see an option to Schedule. Tap or click it to create a new schedule.
- Choose the Add Rule or Add Schedule option. This is where you define when the system should automatically arm.
- Set the days and times you want your Arlo system to be armed. Utilize the user-friendly interface to specify these parameters effectively. For instance, you might want it to be armed at night or when you are typically out of the house.
- Save the schedule once you have entered the desired settings. This step ensures that your changes are recorded and the system will follow your specified times.
Troubleshooting Scheduling Issues
- If you experience troubles, verify that your Arlo system firmware and app are updated to the latest version. Outdated software can cause unexpected behavior.
- Ensure your device has a strong internet connection. Weak or unstable network connectivity might disrupt the scheduling feature.
- Recheck the time zone settings in your Arlo account. Incorrect time zones can lead to errors in the scheduling process.
- Try reinitializing the schedule by removing the old one and creating a new schedule as described above.
