Can this motion sensor be set to work dusk to dawn?

works 24/7. you can put a timer on your signaling device to turn it on and off.

Yes, it can be programmed to work only dusk to dawn. The drawback is if you change batteries it has to be reprogrammed. Don't lose your instructions.

Yes. It can turn lights on and off at dusk and dawn. It uses an odd setup that turns any device that is set at unit code +1 on and off according to daylight - so if you do not want this feature, you will need to avoid setting any device at the trigger code +1. It can also be set to only sense motion after dark and not respond during daylight. It's a major pain to setup, but does what it says at an incredible price.

There is a basic fault with this item it does switch on at Dusk but will not switch off at dawn, you have to do this manually!!

Yes, it can be. I have 3 of these and have covered the sensor (the small little hole, not the white translucent plastic bulge), and that way the sensor turns the light on if there is motion day or night. I see someone else said no, but I don't think they did it right, because it works on all 3 of mine. PS - I used black electrical tape so that the sensor would be well blacked out.

Yes. It will not come on during the day when it senses motion, but the little red light on the sensor will blink.

It has a light sensor in it. When it is daylight it does not come on. At night the motion sensor is great. The light is very bright, I use it in the entry of my garage to light the way. I would highly recommend it if a bright light is what you are looking for.

It shouldnt be a problem. If you can tell night from day where the sensor is mounted, it should work fine. Just make sure the sensor is pointed in the direction of the open daylight area.

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!

I don't think so. If you want to control when these lights either turn on or off, you should think about getting the non, dusk-to-dawn version of this light.

I have two --- one works great on motion sensor. The other has proven very difficult to get the settings right. I would not recommend unless you have a lot of patience.

I would think you could but it was not designed that way,I'm not sure how the motion sensor would work,,,

The sensor should cause the light to go on at dark and off in the am. I can only guess that there is a problem with the sensor.

It can be set to come on dusk to dawn, or set to come on when it detects motion. It can also be set to stay on for 1to 20 minutes after it senses motion. The sensitivity to motion can also be controlled, but that takes manual adjusting. All controls are on the unit, so if it's mounted up high, you need to go up and down the ladder until you have te settings to your preference. Overall, it's turned out to be the best motion sensor light we've installed.

There is a 3 way switch on the light which allows dusk to dawn or motion sensing. The answer is the light is capable of both functions. I had a hard time getting it to be a motion light. It took many tries but finally it worked. It should not have taken so many tries.

No this light fixture isn't dusk to dawn but has a motion sensor which can be set 5, 10, or 15 minutes for the light. However, it's great for back porch and yard. You can buy a photo sensor to make it dusk to dawn. Any local hardware store should have them and they're inexpensive.

Yes. If you turn the light off manually it will not immediately respond to motion to turn it back on, but after a minute or so it will resume the motion sensor function.

This model does have a light sensor and turns on a dusk and off at dawn. I have been using it for years with no problems.

There is a little dial on the sensor for adjustment. I believe it can be run dusk till dawn.
