To enhance the security of your property, your camera offers both Audible and Flashlight alarms that can be activated when motion is detected. You can turn these alarms on and customize them to suit your needs.
Turn On the Alarms
- Open the app and select the camera you’d like to adjust.
- Tap the Settings icon.
- Go to Alarm Settings.
- Choose to enable the Audible Alarm, the Flashlight Alarm, or both.
How the Alarms Work
Audible Alarm
When enabled, the camera emits a loud sound whenever motion is detected. You can set the alarm to last for 5, 10, or 15 seconds. This feature is designed to alert intruders that they’ve been detected.
Flashlight Alarm
When enabled, the camera flashes a bright light each time motion is detected. This option is especially effective at night, drawing attention to the area and discouraging unwanted activity.
You can enable both alarms at the same time for greater protection.
Note: Frequent use of alarms, especially the flashlight, may increase battery consumption.
Trigger Alarms During Live View
You can also activate the Audible Alarm manually while watching the live stream of your camera. Simply tap the Audible Alarm icon on the live view screen to trigger a loud sound immediately. This is useful if you notice unusual activity in real time.
Compatibility
- Audible Alarm is supported on all camera models.
- Flashlight Alarm is available only on certain models. If your camera doesn’t support it, you’ll see only the Audible Alarm option.
