Security Modes
Security Modes
Security modes give you hands-on control over how the camera responds to motion or sound in
different situations. For example, when you are at home, you don’t need the camera to push
notifications while you relax and spend time with your family. While you are away on a vacation,
you may want to keep your house monitored, remain notified and alert of any events happening
in the house.
The eufy Security system provides the following security modes to choose from:
Home, Away, Disarmed, Customized, Geofencing, and Schedule.
Home mode
When you set the camera to Home mode, the camera will keep recording, and notifications or
alerts will be sent to you when motion or sound is detected by default. While no alarm will be
triggered. Recommended using when you are at home.
Away mode
If you arm your camera in Away mode, any human or entry will be detected and an alarm will be
triggered. Recording will be activated, and notifications will be sent to you via your phone.
Recommended using when you are away from home.
Disarmed
If you disarm your camera, all detection functions will be disabled. No sensors are activated and
no alarm alerts will be sent.
Customized mode
Customized mode is recommended if you feel a customized security mode is needed to match
your specific life requirements. For example, when you are sleeping, you may want the video
recorded but do not want to receive any notifications, you can choose to turn off these options
and customize your own mode.
Geofencing
Geofencing is a location-based service that allows certain actions to be triggered if you enter or
leave a specific area specified on your eufy Security app. With geofencing, camera mode will be
switched automatically when you are in or out of the predefined area.
Schedule
Security modes can be switched automatically based on the schedule you set. For example,
you select “Away” mode from 7 am to 5 pm every workday (from Monday to Friday), then the
security mode will be switched to Away at 7 am automatically every workday and the mode will
be kept till 5 pm.
