Hi there!

 

I have a network of six cameras, and I’d love to set up a smart button (S200B) near the door to easily control them. My goal is to press the button once when leaving to arm all cameras (enabling motion recording) and double-click it when I get home to disarm them.

 

This setup would help me avoid constant notifications, save battery, and reduce unnecessary storage usage. However, I don’t want to enable Privacy Mode—I just want the cameras to stop detecting motion when I’m home rather than turning off completely.

 

Is there a way to configure this using a smart button (S200B), automation, or an integration with my system? Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

 

Thanks in advance!

As you might already know, camera Home/Away mode is not available as an Action option in the smart action.
