Check your cameras field of view The field of view is the area in which the camera can detect motion. You can set the field of view to Full (110 degrees), Wide (125 degrees), or Super Wide (160 degrees). Get Started 15 Pro 5 Spotlight CameraUser ManualDRAFT Arlo automatically corrects the image to reduce the fisheye effect for each field of view setting. Change the field of view You can set the field of view to Full (110 degrees), Wide (125 degrees), or Super wide (160 degrees). 110 125 160 1. Open the Arlo Secure App. 2. Tap Settings > My Devices. 3. Select the camera. 4. Tap Video Settings > Video Mode. 5. Tap a field of view to automatically apply it to your camera. Position your camera to detect motion in specific areas You can mount and aim your Pro 5 Spotlight Camera in different ways to optimize the cameras ability to detect motion in specific areas. The lower two-thirds of the cameras field of view is the motion-sensitive part of the image. Aim the camera so that any motion you wish to detect appears within this part of the image. If you want to monitor motion closer to the camera, such as visitors to your front door, mount the camera at least 6.5 feet (1.9 meters) high* and aim it so that visitors appear in the lower two-thirds of the image.

*At 6.5 feet (2 meters) or higher, we recommend using the Arlo Outdoor Mount. Get Started 16 Pro 5 Spotlight CameraUser ManualDRAFT This angle works well to avoid motion alerts for movement in the top third of the image, such as vehicles driving by. To monitor motion occurring farther away, such as children playing on a lawn, aim the camera higher to frame the area within the lower two-thirds of the image. Its best to position the camera so that motion is moving from side-to-side across its field of view rather than directly toward or away from the camera. Also, though the camera can detect motion up to 25 feet (7.6 meters) away, the best area for motion detection is 5 to 20 feet (1.5 to 6 meters) from the camera position. Use camera positioning to aim your camera Camera positioning is available only when the camera is not streaming, recording motion, or using the Motion Detection test. During camera positioning, the camera streams video as fast as possible, without buffering. You can aim your camera while watching on your smartphone and making near real-time adjustments to the camera position. This means that you might see lower-quality video while you are positioning your camera. To position your camera:

1. Open the Arlo Secure App. 2. Tap Settings > My Devices. 3. Select the camera. 4. Tap Device Utilities > Camera Positioning. The camera starts streaming video. The signal strength bar indicates the Wi-Fi signal that your camera is receiving at its current location. Get Started 17 Pro 5 Spotlight CameraUser ManualDRAFT Test motion detection You can use the motion detection test to find the right motion sensitivity setting for your camera. 1. Open the Arlo Secure App. 2. Tap Settings > My Devices. 3. Select your camera. 4. Tap Device Utilities > Motion Detection Test. 5. Move in front of the camera. During this test, the LED blinks amber when motion is detected. 6. Move the slider to adjust the motion sensitivity level as needed. This motion sensitivity setting is used during the motion detection test. It is not automatically applied to the camera rules used by modes to arm your camera. When you are satisfied with a particular motion sensitivity level in the test, note the setting so that you can add it to your rules. 7. Edit the rule for your camera to enter the motion sensitivity level that you want to use. See Change motion sensitivity on page 40. Arm your camera When your camera is armed it detects sound and motion. You can control when your camera is armed using these features:

Arm or disarm all your Arlo cameras and devices. See Arm or disarm all your Arlo devices on page 38. Select a mode such as Armed, Disarmed, Schedule, or Geofencing. See Select a mode on page 39.

Wi-Fi Setup and Connections During installation, the Arlo Secure App guides you to connect the Pro 5 Camera to your Wi-Fi routers 5 GHz or 2.4 GHz network, or to an optional Arlo SmartHub or base station. After your Pro 5 Camera is set up and active, you can pair it to a Keypad Hub (sold separately) using RF connectivity. Wi-Fi connection options for your camera When you install your camera you can connect it directly to your routers 5 GHz or 2.4 GHz Wi-

Fi band, or you can connect the camera with Wi-Fi to an Arlo SmartHub VMB5000 or VMB4540, or an Arlo base station VMB4500 or VMB4000. An Arlo SmartHub or base station isnt included in the package with your camera. They are sold separately. Using your camera with a SmartHub or base station gives you access to these additional features:

2K local streaming and 2K local recording Auto Zoom and Tracking CVR (with a subscription) Use local storage on an SD card in a VMB5000 SmartHub or on a USB storage device connected to the SmartHub VMB4540 or base station VMB4500 or VMB4000.

To do this, you must remove the device from your account and reinstall through the Arlo Secure App, selecting the appropriate option to move back and forth. 20 DRAFT Tips for optimal Wi-Fi performance The distance between Wi-Fi devices can affect the Wi-Fi signal:

Maximum recommended distance. We recommend that you place your floodlgiht within 300 feet (90 meters) of your Wi-Fi router. The maximum line-of-sight range of 300 feet is reduced by each wall, ceiling, or other major obstruction between the camera and the router. Minimum recommended distance. To reduce Wi-Fi interference, allow at least 6 feet (2 meters) between your camera and any Arlo cameras that you install. These materials can reduce Wi-Fi signal strength if they are located between Wi-Fi devices:

Unusually thick walls and ceilings Brick Concrete Stone Ceramic Glass, especially mirrors Metal Large quantities of water, such as the water in a fish tank or water heater Connect your mobile device to your Wi-Fi network during setup If youre connecting your camera directly to your routers Wi-Fi network, its important to understand that your mobile device must connect to the same Wi-Fi network as the camera during setup. Your camera can only connect to a 5 GHz or 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network. Many routers broadcast Wi-

Fi networks in both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, so your phone might connect to the 5 GHz Wi-Fi band. During setup, connect your phone to your 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network, then connect your camera to that same 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network. Find your Wi-Fi network name and password If youre not sure about how to find the Wi-Fi network:

Look on your Wi-Fi router label. Many routers have a label that shows the Wi-Fi network name, which is also called an SSID. Your 2.4 GHz network name might have a 2, 2.4, or 2G at the end. Your 5 GHz network Wi-Fi Setup and Connections 21 Pro 5 Spotlight CameraUser ManualDRAFT name might have a 5 or 5G at the end. If you changed your Wi-Fi settings, then check the place where you saved your custom settings. If your Wi-Fi network name or SSID doesnt indicate whether its 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz, ask your internet service provider (ISP) or the person who set up your Wi-Fi router. If you have a mesh Wi-Fi network, it uses only one Wi-Fi network name for both Wi-Fi bands. The camera finds and connects to the 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi band. As long as you connect your phone to the same mesh network, Arlo can discover the camera. Connect your iOS (Apple) device to a Wi-Fi network 1. Unlock your device and tap Settings. 2. Tap Wi-Fi, near the top of the list of Settings options. 3. Turn on Wi-Fi by tapping the switch next to Wi-Fi at the top. Note: Wi-Fi is activated when the switch is green. 4.

You can use Arlo Geofencing to arm, disarm, or resume schedule modes when your mobile device is in zone or out of zone. To set up geofencing, you must use your mobile device and allow the Arlo Secure App to use your location. Geofencing accuracy For accuracy, geofencing uses a combination of GPS, cellular data, and Wi-Fi data. The local environment affects geofencing:

In urban environments, where the cell towers and Wi-Fi routers are more dense, geofencing accuracy can reach 100200 meters. Modes, Rules, and Alerts 44 Pro 5 Spotlight CameraUser ManualDRAFT Note: If you live in a skyscraper, geofencing might not work reliably due to GPS inaccuracies. Using the Large radius setting might help. In rural areas, where cell towers and Wi-Fi routers are sparse, geofencing accuracy can reach several hundred meters. To improve geofencing accuracy, make sure that your mobile device meets these conditions:

Wi-Fi is turned on. GPS or location services are turned on. Prepare your mobile device for geofencing 1. Enable GPS or location services so that Arlo can locate your device. 2. Enable Wi-Fi. 3. Download the Arlo Secure App and log in on each mobile device that you plan to enable for geofencing. For Arlo Geofencing to work on your device, you must adjust the settings on your Android or iOS mobile device as follows:

Android devices Location permission = On Location services = On Battery saver = Off Data limit = Off Airplane mode = Off iOS (Apple) devices Share my location = On Location services = Always Airplane mode = Off Set up geofencing for the first time and set up modes 1.

Tap Save. For troubleshooting tips, see Troubleshoot Arlo Geofencing on page 86. Geofencing with multiple mobile devices Arlo Geofencing works with multiple mobile devices. Arlo uses the first-in, last-out principal to manage households where more than one person uses geofencing. If everyone leaves home with their mobile devices, this triggers an away state. Since no one is inside the geofence, your cameras are armed. When the first person comes home (first in), their mobile device is now inside the geofence, triggering the home state and your cameras are disarmed. If one person leaves, but another is still home, the cameras stay disarmed in the home state until the last person leaves (last out). We recommend that you enable geofencing only for the mobile device that each person carries every day. For example, if you use a smartphone and a tablet, and you take your phone when you leave, set your phone as an Enabled Device in your Geofencing settings. Dont set your tablet as an enabled device, because Away mode wont be triggered when you go out and leave your tablet home. Modes, Rules, and Alerts 46 Pro 5 Spotlight CameraUser ManualDRAFT The Geofencing mode only changes from Home to Away when all enabled mobile devices are outside the Device Location in your Geofencing settings.

For information about Arlo Secure, visit What are the available Arlo subscription plans and how much cloud recording is available?

Alarm Detection notifies your Arlo Secure App when your camera detects the sound of a smoke or carbon monoxide (CO) alarm going off. Your camera records until activity stops or for the length of time you specify (up to a maximum of 300 seconds). Compatible alarms We recommend that you test the compatibility of your alarm with the Alarm Detection feature. The Alarm Detection feature recognizes these alarms:

Smoke detectors with industry-standard T3 alarms (three intermittent beeps, followed by a period of silence). Carbon monoxide (CO) detectors with industry-standard T4 alarms (four intermittent beeps, followed by a period of silence). The Alarm Detection feature doesnt detect alarms with other patterns. Newer smoke detectors tend to emit a T3 alarm (three intermittent beeps followed by a period of silence), and carbon monoxide detectors emit a T4 alarm (four intermittent beeps followed by a period of silence). Some examples of detector models that emit compatible T3 and T4 signals include:

Kidde i9050 USI5304 First Alert 0827 First Alert P1210 First Alert SCO5 To determine your detectors alarm pattern, see the instructions that came with your detector or search online for product information. Modes, Rules, and Alerts 49 Pro 5 Spotlight CameraUser ManualDRAFT Prepare a location to test your alarm compatibility We recommend that you test your alarm to find out if it is compatible with the Arlo Alarm Detection feature. Before beginning a test, make sure that:

Your smoke and carbon monoxide detectors can emit a continuous T3 or T4 pattern for 30 seconds during the test. If youre not sure if the test button on your alarm can do this, check the instructions that came with your alarm or search online for product information. The alarm location doesnt generate echoes and doesnt have sounds that are louder than the alarm. There wont be motion in your cameras field of view while you conduct the alarm test. If the camera detects motion during the test, it might not be clear whether the camera also detected the alarm. Test your alarm for compatibility with Alarm Detection 1. During the test, place your camera within two feet of your alarm. After a successful compatibility test, you can move your camera to a different location and test the Alarm Detection range. 2. Open the Arlo Secure App. 3. Make sure that your camera is in Armed mode or another mode in which it can detect sound and motion. 4. Tap Settings > Smart Notifications. 5. Select a camera. 6. In the Audio Alerts section, select Smoke/CO Alarm and make sure that Other Audio is turned off. 7. Close the Arlo Secure App, but dont log out. 8. Use the test button on your smoke or carbon monoxide detector to activate the alarm for 30 seconds. Compatible alarms sound continuously for 20 seconds in one of these patterns:

Smoke detectors with industry-standard T3 alarms emit three intermittent beeps, followed by a period of silence. Carbon monoxide (CO) detectors with industry-standard T4 alarms emit four intermittent beeps, followed by a period of silence. Modes, Rules, and Alerts 50 Pro 5 Spotlight CameraUser ManualDRAFT Alarm Detection test results The following sections explain the test results. Alarm Detection is working You received an Audio Alert push notification from the Arlo Secure App on your mobile device and a video clip labeled Smoke/CO alarm? is saved in your Arlo Library. This means that your camera is within range of your alarm, and your alarm is compatible with the Alarm Detection feature. Note: Arlo cameras use battery power every time they record, so its important that youre aware when you have audio alert options turned on. You can purchase spare batteries and the Arlo Dual Battery Charging station, sold separately, if desired. Arlo recorded a video but didnt notify you If you dont receive and Audio Alert push notification, but a video clip labeled Audio is saved in your Arlo Library, your camera is within range of your smoke or CO detector, but it did not recognize the sound pattern as a smoke or CO alarm. You might not be notified for these reasons:

Your smoke or CO detector did not emit a continuous T3 or T4 alarm pattern. There is too much background noise or an echo where your camera is located. Your alarm is not compatible with the Alarm Detection feature. We recommend that you perform the test again to confirm the results. Arlo didnt notify you or record a video The camera is too far from the alarm to detect it. Move your Arlo camera closer to your alarm and perform the test again. Test the Alarm Detection range After a successful compatibility test, we recommend that you test the Alarm Detection range when you move your camera to a different location. 1. Place your Pro 5 Spotlight Camera in the desired location. 2. Open the Arlo Secure App. 3. Make sure that your camera is in Armed mode or another mode in which it can detect sound and motion. 4.

Access Your Arlo Account Once you set up your Arlo account, you can access it by using the Arlo Secure App on a smartphone or tablet, or from a computer using a web browser. If youre using a computer, enter https://my.arlo.com/#/login in the address bar of the browser. Two-step verification All Arlo users must have two-step verification enabled to access their account. This is to protect your data and add an extra layer of security to your Arlo account. We recommend setting up two-step verification as soon as you create your Arlo account, or as soon as the Arlo Secure App prompts you to set up two-step verification. Two-step verification helps protect your Arlo account by adding another step of authentication when you log in. Arlo will verify your identity any time you sign in with a new device. You can have up to five different trusted devices, phone numbers, or email addresses to verify your Arlo account login. Note: Before you set up two-step verification, make sure that you can log in to the email address associated with your Arlo account. Your account email is always used as a backup option to log in to your account. How two-step verification works To sign in with two-step verification, you must first correctly enter your email address and password. Then, you must verify your identity with a security code (delivered by SMS text message or email) or confirmation from an already trusted device. Requiring two pieces of information helps to prevent any unwanted log in, even if someone has your Arlo account password. Trusted device push notifications You can trust a device on your account so that you never have to verify your log in with a push notification or text message when you log in on the trusted device. When a non-trusted device attempts to log in to your Arlo account on a new device, Arlo sends a push notification to a trusted (and currently logged in) iOS or Android device. Tap the push 53 DRAFT notification on the trusted device to approve or deny the log in. This is the simplest and most secure option to get started with two-step verification. SMS text message When someone attempts to log in to your Arlo account, Arlo sends a text message to the phone number that you verified for two-step verification. Enter the security code from the text message to complete the log in. Email If you cant access your account with a trusted device or push notifications, or if you cant receive SMS text messages, you can request to have a security code sent to the email associated with your Arlo account. Set up two-step verification 1. Make sure you can log in to the email that youre using for your Arlo account. Email is your backup two-step verification option. 2. Open the Arlo Secure App. 3.

Battery life Your cameras battery lifespan varies depending on the number of motion triggers that occur and how often the camera activates. Note: Cold temperatures can affect any batterys capacity because of their chemistry. This means that if you install your camera outside in cold temperatures, you might notice a shorter battery duration, or a faster than expected drop in the displayed battery capacity. To optimize the lifespan of your battery:

Select a location for your camera with a strong Wi-Fi signal. A strong Wi-Fi signal typically requires less battery power than a weak Wi-Fi signal. You can check the strength of the Wi-Fi signal from the Arlo Secure App. Arlo Rechargeable Battery 82 Pro 5 Spotlight CameraUser ManualDRAFT If you use an optional Arlo SmartHub or base station, we recommend placing your camera up to 300 feet away. For information about your routers Wi-Fi range, check with the router manufacturer or with your internet service provider (ISP) if they installed your router. Your Arlo camera lets you choose the quality level of the video it records. Cameras set to high-quality video recording use more battery power than cameras set to low-quality video recording. Fine-tune the position of your camera. Angle the camera so that it only detects motion in areas of interest. This helps reduce unwanted recordings and triggers from motion that occur in the background. Set a schedule for your camera. If you dont need your camera to activate during all hours of the day, you can set it to wake up and use battery power only during the hours when you need it. See Schedule when your camera is armed on page 43. If your router allows it, increase the DHCP lease renewal time. Most routers are DHCP servers that assign IP addresses to the devices on their networks. The DHCP lease is the length of time the devices can reserve an IP address on the network. For example, a router might use a DHCP lease renewal time of 24 hours (1440 minutes). Increasing the DHCP lease renewal time might reduce the network traffic. For more information, see the instructions from your routers manufacturer or your ISP if they installed your router. Safe handling and usage guidelines for removable and rechargeable batteries Batteries can EXPLODE, CATCH FIRE, and/or CAUSE BURNS if disassembled, punctured, cut, crushed, short circuited, incinerated, recharged (disposable cells), or exposed to water, fire, or high temperatures To ensure optimal safety and performance:

Only use Arlo batteries. If you are unsure about whether a replacement battery or charger is compatible, contact Arlo. DO NOT use this battery for anything other than its intended purpose. DO NOT use a battery if its case appears damaged, swollen, or compromised. Examples include, but are not limited to, leaking, odors, dents, corrosion, rust, cracks, swelling, melting, and scratches.

Arlo Rechargeable Battery 84 Pro 5 Spotlight CameraUser ManualDRAFT 12. Troubleshooting Scan a QR code during setup During setup, the camera must scan a QR code from the Arlo Secure App when youre adding the camera to your Wi-Fi network. If your camera doesnt emit a chime sound after scanning the QR code, then the QR code wasnt successfully scanned. If your camera didnt scan the QR code:

Move your mobile device farther from, or closer to, the camera lens. Position your mobile device about 6 in. (15 cm) from the camera lens, and slowly move it closer. If that doesnt work, try moving your mobile device farther away. You can also try different angles. Decrease or increase the brightness on your mobile device. Your mobile devices brightness might be too high or too low for your camera to scan the QR code. If its dark outside, try setting the brightness on your mobile device to the 50% level. If its bright outside, try raising the brightness on your mobile device to the highest level. Disable Dark Mode if youre using an iOS device. In your iOS Settings, scroll down to find and select Display & Brightness. Choose Light mode under the Appearance options. Scan the QR code in an evenly lit area. Avoid scanning the QR code in the dark or in direct sunlight. If you are installing at night, turn on porch lights. If your camera is exposed to direct sunlight during installation, provide some shade. Try using a mobile device with a larger screen ,such as a tablet or iPad, if available. Clean the camera lens. The camera lens might have debris or a smudge on it, hindering its ability to scan the QR code. Try using a lint-free cloth to remove anything that might prevent the camera from scanning the QR code. 85 DRAFT Optimize multiple 2K streams You might experience connectivity issues if youre running multiple 2K live streams on your Arlo Secure App. To optimize connectivity, check your network environment and adjust your camera settings as needed. Make sure your average bandwidth speed is at least 2 Mbps per camera. Note: To check your Internet speed, visit www.speedtest.net. The result of the Internet speed test might change, depending on varying amounts of traffic. For accurate results, run the speed test several times. If youre still experiencing connectivity issues after checking your Wi-Fi connection and Internet speed, do the following tasks until your connection is back to normal. Adjust your camera settings in the Arlo Secure App:

1. Change the power management settings on each camera to Optimized. 2. Change the power management settings on each camera to Best Battery Life. For more information, see Change the video quality and battery usage on page 63. Troubleshoot Arlo Geofencing Each Arlo user has a unique setup environment. These are the most common geofencing issues. Your mobile device isnt sharing its location information with Arlo. See Prepare your mobile device for geofencing on page 45. Away mode isnt triggered when you leave because an extra mobile device thats enabled for geofencing is still in the Device Location. See Geofencing with multiple mobile devices on page 46. Geofencing stopped working because the location sharing settings for a mobile device changed. See Prepare your mobile device for geofencing on page 45.

Cant see video streams in a browser Your router might be blocking the ports to which Arlo sends data. To make sure that Arlo can stay connected, you must keep ports 443 and 80 open on your router. To troubleshoot problems with the video stream, check for the conditions in the following sections Wi-Fi signal interference on page 87 Wi-Fi signal interference on page 87, Out of range on page 87, and Low battery on page 88. Wi-Fi signal interference Environments with multiple Wi-Fi networks, Wi-Fi devices, or frequencies can cause signal interference. If possible, minimize the number of networks, Wi-Fi devices, and transmitted frequencies in the area where you place your camera. For help with adjusting Wi-Fi settings such as the channel for your router, check the instructions that came with your router or contact your Internet service provider (ISP) if they installed your router. We recommend that you place your camera at least 1 to 3 feet (30 to 100 centimeters) from your router or Arlo SmartHub or base station if you use one. Allow at least 6 feet (2 meters) between each camera or Arlo camera to prevent Wi-Fi signals between the devices from interfering with each other. Out of range Make sure that your camera is close enough to receive a strong Wi-Fi signal. The range of your routers Wi-Fi signal can vary depending on the router model and conditions in your local environment. If you pair your camera to an optional Arlo SmartHub or base station, we recommend that you place the camera no farther than 300 feet (90 meters) from the SmartHub or base station. The range might be less if metal objects or thick walls and ceilings are between a camera and the SmartHub or base station. Make sure that your cameras display three or four bars of signal strength in the area where you intend to install them. The camera can work when signal strength is at one or two bars, but might go out of range intermittently due to fluctuations in the environment. Troubleshooting 87 Pro 5 Spotlight CameraUser ManualDRAFT Low battery A low battery can cause the camera to stream intermittently. Its time to recharge the battery or change it when the battery level is down to two bars on the Arlo Secure App Devices page.
