If the device is set to timer mode, what triggers it coming on - dusk or a particular time?

When you set the # of hours it will go on at dusk for that # of hours then goes off. I have found the dusk to dawn setting the best.

I understand, than the timer will start from down for a number of hours you will choose. The number off hours is choose by the number of time you press the ''timer'' button.

Dusk sets it off for 2 1/2, 5, or 8 hrs. Or you can set it for dawn to dusk

The Timer switch is to set the time to time on and time off. The On button in the on position will automatically turn the device on and off at the times set. I hope this helps. Bob

I turn mine onto timer at the exact time of day that I would like it to turn on. Like clockwork the pop on ea evening just before dark

It is not always on. I believe the timeout is set around 10 seconds before going back to sleep for default.

Yes, like Ron said, you can have it turn on at dusk and stay on up to 8 hours straight.

OK, I just found and changed the AUTO SET and the DST settings. I hope that does the trick. Thanks for the tip!

Press the botton used to select the amount of time for it to stay on. If you can't reach the outlet you might be better off with a regular light timer set to turn on and off by itself.

There is a button. On, off and night. It can not be individually set on timers for day and night light.

Dusk to dawn can be turned off. I have mine connected in place of the devious generation of IR sensing light and it works fine with the light switch to turn it on solid or auto switch like you said. A good buy too!

Yes, once the sensor knows it is dark - it becomes active. The unit stays off during daylight.

No. It's that timer to set device on and off at specific time. Like turn on at 08:00 AM and off at 10:00 PM. Ok?

There is an option from Dusk To Dawn, in fact the front and back of the box mentions it. If you want the Dusk to Dawn option you must enter 'Manual Mode'. Manual Mode only works 'AT NIGHT' because daylight returns the sensor to AUTO. Flip the light switch off for one second then back on to toggle between AUTO and MANUAL MODE. Auto Mode - On time 1- 5 - 10 Minutes (Motion sensor) Manual Mode - On time (To Dawn) *Resets to Auto Mode at Dawn* Note: When first turned on wait about 1 1/2 minutes for the circuitry to calibrate.

There's a "dusk to dawn" mode that will leave it on all night. "Test" mode will turn it on all the time regardless of ambient light levels.

It is hard to say, I find that it does not come on until it is dark. For the price I would try it, works fine for my application. You can always move the location of the device.

It can be set for DUSK to DAWN or to go off 2, 4, etc hours after dusk turn-on.

Only by using an external timer, this thing does not have a clock built in. It will, if set to do so, turn on at dusk for a number of hours you can configure, but dusk keeps changing of course...If you want to have this turn on and off at a set time, use an external timer device. Something like this: Intermatic P1121 Heavy Duty Outdoor Timer 15 Amp/1 HP
