7. SmartHub SD Card Storage

The SmartHub model VMB5000 supports SD card storage. If you use your camera with the
SmartHub VMB5000, you can use this feature.
You can insert a microSD card into the slot in your SmartHub VMB5000 and store your Arlo
recordings both in the cloud and on the SD card. If the SmartHub isn't connected to the
internet, recordings continue to be saved on the microSD card. If you have an active live
stream connection between an Arlo Ultra camera and a SmartHub, you can record to a
microSD card. Your Arlo app notifies you when the SD card is low on storage space or is full.
MicroSD card format
Your SmartHub accepts SDHC or SDXC microSD cards. We recommend using microSD cards
with a minimum of 16 GB capacity, Speed Class 10, UHS-1, V10. Your Arlo SmartHub supports
up to Class 10 UHS-3 V90.
If your microSD card isn't formatted, or is formatted with an incompatible file system, you can
use your Arlo app to format the microSD card. See
Format a microSD card
on page 51.

Insert a microSD card

1. Insert the microSD card into the slot on the bottom of the SmartHub.
2. Press the edge of the microSD card until it's completely seated in the slot.

The Arlo Essential camera may stop working at times due to several issues:

1. Charging problems: Some users report that the camera does not charge properly or takes too long to charge. This may be caused by a faulty connection between the micro USB port and the internal circuit board.

2. Connection issues: The camera may fail to connect to the base station, showing error code 65535. However, it may still connect over Wi-Fi.

3. Hardware defects: Some users suspect their camera was defective from the beginning, requiring repair or replacement.

4. Support delays: Difficulty in getting timely support may prevent users from resolving these problems quickly.
