Can floodlight be be turned on and off for long periods of time?

Hello,
I have my Floodlight cams wired for direct power. Some times i’m working in the yard and just need the lights to stay on. Is there something in the setting that will allow the lights to stay on continuously until i shut them off? Or do I have to set up a rule and keep changing the hour’s? Often times i’m just running out to get stuff from the car and the lights go out when motion isn’t detected. Any help is greatly appreciated

In the cams settings > accessories > floodlight, set it to on instead of auto

Dear Wyze Team, is there anyway to make this button as a shortcut instead of having to go through all these steps?

Where do you set the timer for the floodlight after.it picks someone up? I feel like my turns off very quickly. Thanks

Don’t see accessories listed under settings. When I click flood light settings these are my only options.

On the v1 floodlight it is under accessories, but on the floodlight pro it is just under floodlight.

If you go into the Motion page, you should see Lights Off Timer, I believe at the bottom.

I know how to adjust the timer on the floodlight. We had a power outage and the camera and lights are working fine, but the lights only stay on for 30 seconds when triggered. When i go to “accessories” I get a pop up telling me to unplug the camera amd try again, or that it doesn’t recognize a floodlight, rerouting me with a link to “shop.”

I have one installed and I’ve tried unplugging, restarting, updating… standing on one leg, sprinkling fairy dust, praying to the floodcameralightsecurity Gods.

Have you power cycled the floodlight? If it’s on a switch you can just switch it off for 10 seconds and back on, otherwise this may require you to turn the breaker off and back on.

I am having the same problem, and I have tried everything turning breakers off switching the light off, unplugging the camera resetting my Wi-Fi all of it for some reason my floodlight is not registering to my camera and it is driving me nuts
