Discuss PIR switch remote overriding in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

Hey guys, On a job at the moment where the customer wants an LED flood on the end of a farm building, Seems straight forward but he has now decided he would like the light to be PIR operated, Manual override inside the building, AND a remote to switch the light on from his house about 10-15 metres away. Im assuming it will be the PIR that needs to be remote operated and not the floodlight for this setup but was just wondering if anyone has done this before, or if it is even possible? Cant find a remote switched PIR anywhere on the internet.
Thank you very much in advance for any replies!
 
I would suggest a wiring a wireless switch in parallel with the PIR and have two transmitters, one in the building and one in the house, both linked to this switch; then either one operating would change the state of the floodlight manual override.
The PIR will operate independently.
Oh, and there is a floodlight on the end!
