hi I need some advice, I have 2 elv down lights in the porch over the front door, what I want is them to come on automatically when it gets dark using a photo cell, but at midnight I want them to turn off and only come on via a pir sensor, I understand how to do one or the other but not both, I would be grateful of any help I could get. Thanks in advance
 
Time clock (set 1200-0000) in series with Photocell then on to Light.

PIR with built in photocell (most have this) wired in parallel with above.

You would have thought they'd have a switch to flick on and off to engage an override. Not on each PIR but an actual light switch

That will work fine as long as the Pirs use relay switching, some don't.
