Model: Tapo H200   Tapo C420  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

I have a Tapo C420 camera connected to  H200 hub. In the Tapo app I can schedule the camera Alarm but there is no option to enable schedule a hub alarm. You have to manually turn the hub alarm on and off every day. Is it possible to enable schedule alarm for hub?

Create an automation instead if you want to set a schedule for the hub ringing when camera detects movement. Don't use the 'trigger hub alarm' feature in camera settings. 

 

For example, if the below automation rule is created, then the hub will only start ringing when camera detects movement and when this event occurs in the set effective time. 

"Effective time: 07:00 AM - 05:00 PM, When camera movement detected, Then ring Tapo hub."
