Not Na issue, more around use of this integration
im trying to understand how this integration will work or i can make it work better than just viewing the cameras
I have smart subscriptions enabled as well for now, not sure if its needed now i have HA integrated
In the Arlo App, i mainly use the schedule mode. I have a custom mode activated between 9pm and 5am then from 5am to 9pm is another customer mode.
- Because im using schedule mode, does it matter about the below too much
# Alarm Control Panal
alarm_control_panel:
- platform: aarlo
away_mode_name: Armed
home_mode_name: schedule
disarmed_mode_name: Disarmed
trigger_time: 30
alarm_volume: 8
- should i turn off notifications in the arlo app and automations in HA for the cameras..
Any guidance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated asd i just cant wrap my head around how to use this integration
I can only speak for myself...
I still use the Arlo app for notifications but do the scheduling from Home Assistant - I don't have set times of when modes change but base it on occupancy of the house, movement inside the house, sunset and sunrise etc. On my desktop I'll use the lovelace card to access recordings because it's more convenient than opening 2 web pages.
Hope that helps.
