Advanced Features of Arlo Essential Indoor Security Camera

The Arlo Essential indoor camera is available with a black or white finish. Camera enclosures can be mounted on walls and ceilings or placed on desktops with a thin mounting arm and round base. The mounting arm allows the camera to be swiveled forward, backward, or sideways.

The glossy black front of the camera houses the camera assembly hold with an ambient light sensor, a status LED, a microphone, and a privacy shield turned on via an app. Around the back are a speaker, a micro USB power port, and a Sync button located under the front edge of the shell. Under the hood, a 2.4 GHz WI-Fi radio connects to your home network while a siren frightens away intruders. The Essential Indoor camera offers a 130-degree field of view, a 12X digital zoom, and records video in 1080p. It records video and sends push notifications when it hears or sees movements using a single infrared LED for black-and-white night vision. The camera comes with a three-month trial Arlo Smart plan that allows you to see 30 days' worth of recorded video history, then you'll need to buy a subscription to view the camera recording videos and use the other services.

Installation & Setup Process by Using Arlo App(Arlo Essential Wire-Free Indoor/Outdoor 1080p Hd Security Camera 2-Pack) 

The Arlo secure free app helps you to complete the setup and installation process. 

In the foremost step, download and open the Arlo secure app and connect to your Wi-fi network. If you do not have an app on your device, you can download it from the play store or app store and create your Arlo account. 

Sign in to the Arlo account. If you're using the computer & laptop to access your Arlo essential indoor security cameras, enter the web address of my.arlo.com into the address bar of the browser. 

Here you can select the option add device and then add your camera.


Wi-Fi Setup & Connection of Arlo Essential Indoor Security Camera 

When you set up and install your camera, you have two options for connecting it to WiFi: directly to your router's 2.4 GHz band or via WiFi to an ArloSmartHub VMB5000 or VMB4540, an Arlo base station VMB4500 or VMB4000.

The kit that comes with your camera does not contain an ArloSmartHub or base station. You have to purchase that separately. You can get these extra capabilities by pairing your camera with a base station or SmartHub:

Use local storage on a VMB5000 SmartHub's SD card or a USB storage device attached to the VMB4540 SmartHub or base station (VMB4500 or VMB4000).

When using the SmartHubs VMB5000 and VMB4540, use direct storage access.

Once your camera is installed and configured, you can switch its WiFi connection from your router to a base station or SmartHub. Additionally, you can relocate your camera's WiFi connection away from a base station or SmartHub and into your router's 2.4 GHz WiFi spectrum. You must uninstall the device from your account before reinstalling it using the Arlo app. Then, choose the suitable option to switch back and forth.

Effective Tips for Optimal Wi-Fi Performance 

The WiFi signal may change depending on how far apart WiFi devices are:

Recommended maximum distance: We advise placing your WiFi router 90 meters (300 feet) or less from the camera. Each wall, ceiling, or another big obstacle between the camera and router reduces the line-of-maximum sight's range, which is 300 feet.

Minimum advised distance: A minimum distance of 612 feet (2 meters) between your camera and any Arlo cameras at your place to avoid WiFi interference.


How To Use Your Essential Indoor Camera?

Once you open the Arlo app, the device's pages appear in your camera feeds. 

The Privacy Shield

A built-in Privacy Shield is included with your Essential Indoor Camera to provide you with even more privacy. When the camera is unarmed, the Privacy Shield automatically closes, and when it is armed, it opens. When the Privacy Shield closes the camera microphone, motion detections and audio detection are all disabled.

When your camera is unarmed, and you want to live stream it, you must provide your Arlo account password, face authentication (if necessary), or fingerprint authentication. To protect your privacy, this adds a degree of security.


Steps To Close the Privacy Shield of Arlo Essential Indoor Security Camera 

Keep turning the camera on and off using the different modes. The Arlo app allows you to open and close the Privacy Shield. The Privacy Shield should not be open and closed with your fingers. 


To disable the Privacy Shield, switch to disarmed mode.

Close the Privacy Shield after disarming your camera.

Activate the Arlo app.

Click Mode.

Decide on your primary indoor camera.

(Various modes are listed). 

Select Disarm.

The Privacy Shield covers the camera lens and deactivates your camera.


Final Words about Arlo Essential Spotlight Wire-Free Indoor/outdoor 1080p Security Camera

You may access recorded video, intelligent alerts, and a few other capabilities as part of a three-month trial subscription to an Arlo Smart plan, and you'll need to pay a monthly price to continue using these features.
