Title: Eagle Eye Sensor controls additional Mods
Post by: BarryIsOn on February 01, 2012, 01:49:58 PM

Hi All,
My Eagle Eye sensor is set to control modular # 4.  It does that great.  But when the Eagle Eye is activated it turns on unit # 4 and at the same time turns OFF unit # 5.  I did not set it to control mod # 5.

Anyone else have this problem?

Thanks!

The Eagle Eye has a Dusk/Dawn sensor. It is Unit Code +1.
It is probably seeing the light that you are turning on (unit #4) and activating the dusk/dawn sensor

Does sound like it is the Dusk Dawn Sensor on Unit Code 5 seeing the light controlled by Unit Code 4. As B.A. pointed out.
More information on this.
