How does one use the manual override to make it a flood light?

If you place the timer switch to manual override I believe the floodlight will stay on for up to 6 hours. I will have to check the directions but I'm not sure if the 6 hour time period starts at dusk or when the timer switch is first is first moved to the manual override position.

It is a little confusing since the advertising literature mentions a manual override switch but there is nothing labeled manual override. There are essentially only two settings an auto setting where the lights turn on with motion only at night and turn off according to the TIME dial setting. The Dusk to Dawn Setting which I guess is closest to what you want is activated by turning the light switch that controls the light OFF and ON twice within three seconds. Once you do that the light should come one at DUSK and stay on for 6 hours. After 6 hours it will revert to the timer setting and come on and off when motion activated. It will stay that way unless you once again cycle the power on and off within three seconds. You cannot set this light one time to stay on as a "Floodlight". You have to cycle the power each day if you want the unit to come on for 6 hours at dusk each day.

if you want to remember last color seting, please use the IR controller to turn on/off, in this way, when you turn on again, the flood light will keep the last seting. however, if you shut off at wall switch, when you turn on again, it will back to default setting.hope it can help you. eZone Service Center

You need to make sure you get outdoor rated floodlight bulbs. (120W Max PAR38) CFLs are not a good choice for things that are on/off constantly.

I have not tried it but at this paradise website I looked at an LED light, for example, and downloaded the manual and it appears to have the same controller recommendations as the halogen lights.

No, not a typical flood light. More of a work light but floods the area with light.

Let me first say that if Amazon sends you a light that works will be a small miricile. The sent me 2 used worthless lights. Let's say they work just for kicks and grins. If you put it out in the weather water will get in and not good things happen with water and electricity. The controls are on the bottom and it's designed to have the water flow with gravity.Good luck.Larry H.

This sensor is more for a high bay type installation, works really well. There is no manual override on this unit but can be programmed to stay on for quits a while and is very responsive to any motion in a room. Hope this helps!

Yes, you simply need to add it to the outdoor floodlight socket holder base plate that the unit does NOT come with, and then wire accordingly,

I tried to use one of these on my 50 Watt LED flood light and it was strobing/pulsing. From what I hear these motion sensors need a certain amount of current (amp draw) to work properly. Which isn't a problem if you're using a halogen/incandescent or even compact fluorescent bulb. But since the LED lights use so little current it just strobes. If anyone knows how to get these to work well with an LED flood light I would love to know. Thanks

If I remember correctly, there is a manual override capability. I believe, if you have a standard on/off switch, you cycle the switch from "on" to "off" back to "on" quickly it will turn on the light. If you cycle it again it will go back to automatic.

I have 3 of these controlling 6 flood lights. They are wired to a switch which I leave on nearly all the time. Motion sensed by each sensor turns on a pair of lights. You can vary how long the lights stay on.

Not by default, the plug has no where to enter the light beam sensor. You may be able to set up a custom relay, but im not going to figure that out for you.

Yes, you can...but it depends on the type of bulb you choose to use. Standard flood bulbs work with a dimmer, but you have to watch if you use a compact fluorescent or LED. Make sure the style is compatible with a dimmer switch. I highly recommend the LED. The unit will not overheat and shut down.

It should have came with a sheet of paper on which it told you how to do so but this might help you out a little goto YouTube and look for Lighting Moz 17 mode rapid fire controller video by PFCxMORROW sorry didn't reply faster have fun gaming

Yes you should be able to use those flood light bulbs , mine is outside, so I use outdoor bulbs only, but whether it is in or out you should be fine.

A light sensor can be added but when purchased, only on or off. I have had to replace the bulbs due to frequent burn out, so I replaced with standard flood lights.

I agree with Jeffrey Golding; I'm very happy with mine. You have some flexibility in how large an area is illuminated, by being able to "angle" the 2 flood lamps; therefore angling them more "up and out" or "down and closer". I have mine very "down and closer" because where I have my RAB unit is a smaller area.
