Question

How do I set the ActiveEye to only work at night?

Answer

To set whether you want the ActiveEYE to transmit EVERY time it sees motion or only at night; and to enable or disable the “Unit Code +1” function to turn lights on/off at dusk/dawn:

Press the Unit/Off button once. The red light flashes. Then, (within 3 seconds) press and hold the House/On button. The green light turns on. 3 seconds later the ActiveEYE reports its dusk/dawn setting as follows:

  • The red light blinks once if the ActiveEYE is set to detect motion at all times and does not turn Unit Code +1 ON at dusk and OFF at dawn.
  • The red light blinks twice if the ActiveEYE is set to detect motion only when it’s dark and does not turn Unit Code +1 ON at dusk and OFF at dawn.
  • The red light blinks three times if the ActiveEYE is set to detect motion at all times and does turn Unit Code +1 ON at dusk and OFF at dawn.
  • The red light blinks four times if the ActiveEYE is set to detect motion only when it’s dark and does turn Unit Code +1 ON at dusk and OFF at dawn.

To change this, Press the Unit/Off button once. The red light flashes. Then, (within 3 seconds) press and hold the House/On button. The green light turns on. 3 seconds later the ActiveEYE reports its dusk/dawn setting, as listed above. Release and immediately press the House/On button 1, 2, 3, or 4 times for the setting you require, as above.

Hold the button for 3 seconds on your last press. The red light then reports the setting with 1, 2, 3, or 4 blinks.
