Tapo H200 Hub Alarm Synced to Camera Alarm Schedules
This might be more of a bug than a feature but putting it here anyway
Current state:
After setting the schedule for the camera alarm, there is an option to also trigger the hub alarm, however the hub alarm does not follow the camera schedule and will be triggered by any motion. Option is found below:
Select camera > Settings > Detections & Alerts > Camera Alarm > Trigger Hub Alarm > On/off
I have confirmed the time zone settings and tested multiple options but the Hub alarm will always be triggered by motion, despite the camera alarm not being triggered. It has also been confirmed by another user on the forum on this post:

Desired state:
When selecting 'On' for the 'Trigger Hub Alarm' option, the hub will follow the schedule of the camera and only be triggered if the camera alarm is triggered.
This will assist with notifying users when they are out of audio range of the camera to suspicious activity occurring, likely in the middle of the night when usual notifications might be muted or not be enough to wake someone.
Thanks
