# [Version 2.0.301](https://homey.app/a/com.arlo/test/) * * * 2.0.301 has been published to the app store and awaiting certification. - All references to audio flows has been removed - Reorganizes the code. - Logging has been updated. - VMB4500 has been added. - Fixes a bug when an invalid device is added causes an fatal error. * * * There are still several outstanding items which are failing testing, I have identified that the issue with the motion detection ‘stopping’ after a while. Is in fact an issue where when the base station looses internet connection the app no longer gets the events. It can be solved either by reconnecting via the settings page or restarting the app. This will require some time to fix. Even though there are several items still failing, I have added the VMB4500, this is an exception. Its highly unlikely devices will be added to the app while there is outstanding bugs/testing. The issues being reported with VMB4000 will **also** occur with VMB4500 It would be great if some people could test disconnecting/reconnecting via the settings page. | Scope | Feature | Testing | Completed | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | App | Installation of Arlo App | 7/7 | Pass | | Account | Initial connection to Arlo from the settings page. | 1/2 | Unknown | | Account | Initial connection to Arlo from the add device page. | 5/5 | Pass | | Account | Disconnect to Arlo from the settings page. | 3/3 | Pass | | Account | Reconnect to Arlo from the settings page. | 3/3 | Pass | | VMB4000 | Adding VMB4000 Base station | 4/5 | Awaiting Feedback @nmeden | | VMB4000 | Working with trigger when attached camera to the base station has motion event. | 2/5 | Fail | | VMB4000 | Working with condition 'and 'attached camera to the base station has motion alarm is on/off. | 1/1 | More Required | | VMB4000 | Motion event flow cards working as intended. | 2/5 | Fail | | VMB4000 | Add multiple Basestations. | 0/0 | Untested | | VMB4500 | Adding Base station | 1/1 | More Required | | VMB4500 | Working with trigger when attached camera to the base station has motion event. | 1/1 | More Required | | VMB4500 | Working with condition 'and 'attached camera to the base station has motion alarm is on/off. | 1/1 | More Required | | VMB4500 | Motion event flow cards working as intended. | 1/1 | More required | | VMB4500 | Add multiple Basestations. | 1/1 | More Required | | VMB4000/VMB4500 | Add VMB4000 and VMB4500 Basestation. | 0/0 | Untested | While awaiting certification you can test using the test link : [https://homey.app/a/com.arlo/test/](https://homey.app/a/com.arlo/test/) ---

No problem with adding multiple vmb4500 base stations. Vmb4500 base stations still has audio icon but no audio cards in flow though. ![Screenshot_20200309_150247_app.homey](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/7/f/7f65ee291c5c56ef9848496d864db8ce4cb8b9e9.jpeg) ---

@Jamie Ok i try to make things a bit clearer. - 20200307 19:53 Installed the app and configured the flow so that a motion from one of the cameras will send me a message from Homey. - 20200307 20:10 Motion triggered Netgear arlo app AND Homey arlo app message - 20200307 20:16 Motion triggered Netgear arlo app AND Homey arlo app message - 20200308 08:33-15:31 Motion triggered ~ 20 times Netgear arlo app message. Homey app does NOT give me a message but the Netgear Arlo app works fine. - 20200308 21:56 Restarted Homey Arlo app (To fix the issue) - 20200308 21:57 Motion triggered Netgear arlo app AND Homey arlo app message. - 20200308 22:48 Motion triggered Netgear arlo app message. Homey app does NOT send a motion message. - 20200308 22:48 Restarted Homey Arlo app (To fix the issue and reproduce the fix) - 20200308 22:49 Motion triggered Netgear arlo app AND Homey arlo app message ---

@Jamie “It would be great if some people could test disconnecting/reconnecting via the settings page.” - Disconnect to Arlo from the settings OK - Reconnect to Arlo from the settings OK HOWEVER. This did NOT fix the issue with motions not detected. The only way for me to fix this is to restart app. ---

@T_swe thanks for clarifying. Next time it happens can you please send me a diagnostic report, before and after using the settings reconnect? Thanks ---

@Jamie I have tested my vmb4500 since yesterday and the motion seems to be working fine 👍 When will you start adding cameras? ---

Connection issue which stops motion events being triggered is fixed. ✅ Restarted my wifi router, which kills internet connection for about 4 minutes. Did this 3 times and motion is still registered on my VMB4000 and my 3 VMB4500. Motion alarm flow triggers work for individual base stations.✅ Audio Alarm flow triggers are added back into the App ❌ Audio Alarm flow triggers are added back into the base stations ❌ All items above are tested ---

Hello Jamie, Does version 301 include the 45xx? E.g. the 4540R2 or is it only the 4500? ---

> [@Jeroen\_W](#): > > 4540R2 I thought that the 4540 was simply a 4500 - in a package with 4 cameras. It should have the same internal ID as the 4500 - but if it doesnt work, let me know and ill add it. Just double checking that it looks like this : ![original](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/a/a/aaa13a6a2efac1270176554788fdeff976de4f6a.jpeg) ---

After 301 update, it seems to work fine. Oddly enough. I disconnected, added the device (ok), but showing red “!”, I reconnected and it seemed to work fine (I am yet to test alarms and such). Is that as intended? I expected it to not find the case station (or ask to reconnect) when I searched for device when disconnected. ---

That looks like a VMB5000, so if you do the following I might be able to help 1. Disconnect from the server from with the settings 2. Restart the app 3. Reconnect 4. Send me a diagnostic log Ill run through the log and see if I can figure out what device ID it is. Thanks ---
