Outdoor camera spotlight triggers with any indoor motion detector
In HOME mode, my outdoor camera is triggered whenever the active indoor motion detectors are triggered. The notifications, which I could configure to push or not, are not annoying because that is as I choose. It's that the outdoor camera spotlight and camera repeatedly come on.
Consequently,
1) anyone outside would be aware of anyone moving in my home, even just getting up in the middle of the night to the bathroom,
and
2) it's a significant drain on the battery.

Hi @BJS ,
It sounds like in Home Mode, you have your Motion Sensors set to Secret Alert, which sends a notification whenever those sensors are triggered, without actually setting off a full siren alarm event.
However, Secret Alert still counts as part of the Alarm category, which means that the Outdoor Camera will trigger. This is intentional, as there are some situations where this setup might be desired.
