Hi, hoping that someone can help or point me in the right direction.
Background is, my Dad died just over two years ago and his (my parents house) has/had a lot of home automation, of different kinds/products. There were no notes on what anything was or how he had set up anything! I spent the first year getting to grips with what controlled what (makes, apps, how etc) and now have some basic setup/knowledge.
We have a 3 gang light switch in the hallway which controls
1: outside light on separate PIR
2: 2 x hallway lights, connected together on a separate PIR
3: Stair light with microwave PIR lightbulb
I believe that 3 gang switch is Lightwave L23 and PIR's are LightwaveRF PIR LW107
My question is - The two hallway lights that are controlled on a single PIR - Can I add an additional PIR to increase the range of 'sensing'. So that it is working off two PIR's at the same time?
Think L shaped hallway, with 5 rooms coming off it and front door and stairway going upstairs. We need both hallway lights to come on at the same time, to give adequate light coverage. Current set up means that PIR can either pick you up once you are a few steps into the hallway from any room, front door, stairs Or can pick you up once first step into hallway from rooms, but then don't get coverage at front door/stairway.
We need it to pick you up from first step into hallway from any room, front door and stairway due to elderly Mother
I could get adequate sensor range if I put a PIR at either end of the L shape - but I don't know (have tried Googling, but am clearly not coming up with the correct search terms!) if I can put two PIR's on !
