Hello Curious,

Yes, this can be achieved through using the Modes function. Modes are settings in the Ring app that can control the behavior of all of your Ring devices. It’s an expansion of the “Modes” concept used by Ring Alarm. The idea is to configure your cameras to protect your home in different ways, depending on your current needs. Then, all of your devices will work as a single ecosystem with one tap of a button.

In this case, you would select Away Mode to fully secure your house when you leave. You can set all of your cameras, both inside and out, to record your home in this mode. You can decide whether each of your cameras detects motion or not. Here is a helpful link which explains the Modes features, and it's performance: https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360036107792-Control-All-your-Ring-Cameras-with-Modes

For any additional questions regarding the Modes feature, please feel free to reach out on our community forum at https://community.ring.com/.

Thank you, 
Alexis with Ring
