Pressing Button for Light to stay on KS200M
Not sure if someone has started a thread on this subject or not, but is there any way when you press the button to turn on the power on the ks200m to stay on and manually turn it off? Mine won't stay on during the smart control hours I have it set for. (6pm to 6am) or is there something I'm missing? I believe it was working prior to a firmware update that came out last week.

@rgamino13 I have the switch with Firmware 1.0.12 and if you double press the switch to turn it on it will stay on until you turn it off. I ran the off time down to 15 seconds after motion to test and the light will stay on until you turn it off regardless of motion or not. Looks like they brought this manual on and off feature back.

@Chilidawg Thanks for pointing that new feature out. I see the 1.0.12 release notes mention it so I just upgraded my switch. I'll see how it goes. I am still going to keep my automation in place because it provides a failsafe if I forget to turn the lights back off (so thay don't stay on all night).

@Chilidawg Woohoo! Thanks for pointing this out to us! This is exactly how the switch worked originally! Then they updated the firmware around January 2023 and this feature disappeared. And, when I contacted them about it, they claimed that this feature never existed. So glad they added it back and so glad you pointed it out! Thanks!

@Jwelte YES!!! Need a "Hold" button to keep light on manually until you turn it off and need a "Light on Duration", to be able to control how long it stays on with motion.
