Nest is a company that makes home security cameras. They make a Nest Cam, a Nest Cam Indoor, and a Nest Cam Outdoor. The Nest Cam indoor and outdoor models both have the ability to detect motion and sound. The Nest Cam also has the ability to record video for 30 days. To disable the Nest Detect on a Nest Camera, you will need to first remove the battery from the camera. Then, you will need to remove the card from the camera. Finally, you will need to remove the screws that hold the camera together. Once all of these parts are removed, you will be able to detach the camera from its mount. Once detached, you will need to uninstall both of the antennas from the camera. You can do this by using a screwdriver or your hands. Once all of these parts are removed, you will be able to see two screws that hold down one of the antennas on top of the camera. You can then remove this screw by using your hands or a screwdriver. Once this screw is removed, you can then take off one of the antennas from top of the camera. Once both antennas have been removed, you will be able to see two plastic pieces that are connected to one another by a wire. These plastic pieces should now be free from their connection to one another. You can then take these plastic pieces away by using your hands or a screwdriver and place them aside so that they are no longer in contact with each other. Now that all of these parts have been removed from your nest camera, it is time to install them back into their mounts! First, use your hands or a screwdriver to install one ofthe antenna pieces back into its mount on top of your nest cam model (if it was not already installed). Then use your hands or a screwdriver to install another antenna piece into its mount on top of your nest cam model (if it was not already installed). Finally, use
The Nest Secure system comes with two Nest Detect devices, which are open/close sensors that can also act as motion detectors. They even have a small, motion-activated LED light (named Pathlight) that can light your way in a dark hallway. However, if that’s not something you need, you can disable Pathlight in the Nest app.
To do this, open up the Nest app and tap the Settings gear icon up in the top right corner of the screen.
Tap the “Security” setting at the bottom.
Toward the bottom of the “Security” window, tap the Nest Detect device for which you want to disable Pathlight (it will be named something like “Hallway” or “Front Door,” depending on what you named it).
On the page for the Nest Detect device you selected, tap the “Pathlight” option.
Tap the toggle switch to disable Pathlight on that device.
That’s all there is to it! From now on, whenever the Nest Detect device detects motion, the white LED light won’t turn on.
