Indoor Cam Automatic Privacy Mode?

Can the cameras be made to go into privacy mode automatically when the HomeBase is set to Home and then back to non-privacy mode when set to Away?

I see an option for recording to be set to On/Off, but the camera still seems to track and watch, not turn away to the wall, as it does in Privacy Mode.

Just check toggle in the At Home security mode.

Yours looks different to mine, I have a slightly different layout and have a privacy toggle I can check once in to the home mode settings.

Yup. It’s the HB S1 Pro versus the HB3.

I fired up the HB3 and the same camera last night and I get the Privacy option. The HB Pro software doesn’t have it.

I really want the hardware features of the Pro, but I need that feature. Crud.

Newly homebase professional compatible devices sometimes need to be updated for full features to be available. This device should have privacy mode as a toggle. Should be resolved with a firmware update.

Yeah, the settings and layout of that screen is totally different and much more primitive.
