Is it possible for the lights to be activated independently of motion zone activity? I was under the impression that the lights could be set to trigger by a PIR sensor built into the camera, rather than only turning on when something moves within the motion zone(s). However if "Motion Activated Lights" is off, the lights won't come on despite "Motion Zones for Lights" being enabled? Should these 2 features be mutually exclusive..? Thanks

    Hi @Labrajaws. If you disable Motion-Activated Lights, the lights will not activate with motion detection, regardless of the Motion Zones for Lights. This Help Center [article](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/115004155866-Controlling-the-Floodlights-and-Light-Settings-on-Your-Floodlight-Cam) has further information regarding the lights on a Floodlight Cam.

      @Justin_Ring So what is the point of “Motion Zones for Lights”and the 3 zones? It appears they do nothing…?
