Hey can anyone tell me about the modes please? We are using the home one atm and it’s driving me crazy because it goes off every time. What should we set it on, away, if yes how does that work as instructions on all is there is no explanations?
Ummmm?!? Not sure how helpful I can be in a quick post. But will try.
Modes. They have the preset ones (home,away,disarmed)… and you can create custom ones. Most of these modes can be modified any way you want.
So…. Home would be normally used to control your camera ( or cameras if you have a homebase) when you are home. Maybe when home you want the camera to still record events… but not to set off the alarms or notifications on your phone. Your could set this up on the “home” mode by clicking the little gear icon. Then with one tap on home mode it will behave that way.
Then you could set up away mode to set off the camera alarms and notify you of motion. Set up the same way and use the “ away” mode when you leave home.
Disarmed mode will shut off all camera triggers
Once you have your modes set the way you want… it’s a quick tap away. You can also then set up these modes into a schedule (schedule mode)
All my cameras are on a schedule. It will automatically change your modes for you. For example: mine turn on the alarms at night… turn off the alarms when I normally leave for work… shut off a few cameras during the day when the sun through my trees spins them out of control…. You see where I’m going with this. The only time I need to play with it is when I’m not following my normal daily schedule. (Very nice)
Hope this helps a bit.
