To get your [Arlo](https://arlo.netgear.com/) base stations working within Home Assistant, please follow the instructions for the general [Arlo component](/components/arlo).

Configuration variables:
|
||||
|
||||
- **home_mode_name**: (*Optional*): Arlo base station does not have a built-in home mode. You can map one of your custom modes to home assistant's home mode by setting the name of the custom mode in this configuration variable. The name of the custom mode should match exactly as you set it up in the Arlo app.
|
||||
|
||||
## {% linkable_title Examples %}
|
||||
|
||||
These examples are based on an Arlo base station named `my_arlo_base_station`. Replace this with the name of your base station's `entity_id`.

Arming the Arlo Base Station when leaving.
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
- id: arm_arlo_when_leaving
|
||||
alias: Arm Arlo cameras when leaving
|
||||
trigger:
|
||||
platform: state
|
||||
entity_id: group.family
|
||||
from: home
|
||||
to: not_home
|
||||
action:
|
||||
service: alarm_control_panel.alarm_arm_away
|
||||
entity_id: alarm_control_panel.my_arlo_base_station
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Setting Arlo to a custom mode (mapped to `home_mode_name` in `configuration.yaml`) when arriving.
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
- id: disarm_arlo_when_arriving
|
||||
alias: Set Arlo cameras to Home mode when arriving
|
||||
trigger:
|
||||
platform: state
|
||||
entity_id: group.family
|
||||
from: not_home
|
||||
to: home
|
||||
action:
|
||||
service: alarm_control_panel.alarm_arm_home
|
||||
entity_id: alarm_control_panel.my_arlo_base_station
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can also completely disarm the Arlo base station by calling the `alarm_control_panel.alarm_disarm` service, and trigger the alarm by calling the `alarm_control_panel.alarm_trigger` service.
|
||||
|
||||
More examples and configuration options can be found on the [Manual Alarm Control page](/components/alarm_control_panel.manual/#examples).
