Will this unit remember its settings when power is shut off? (My house's landscape lights are on a switch.)

Your lighting unit will default to the automatic on at dusk off in the morning setting, if the power is shut off.

No it doesn't work that way. The lamp does not remember its on/off state. Once disconnected from power, you have to switch it on after connection.

It will remember where you left off, however you must set the the 'power resume' function to 'ON' in the system setup as described on page 13 of the owner's manual.

No, the settings are stored in non-volatile memory, so power outages or unplugging doesnt affect settings. I set one controller aside literally for years. When plugged back in the last settings were there.

No it does not save the setting so every time I unplug the unit I have to thumb thru the settings to get to the one I had set prior to unplugging it

When power is restored the switch goes back to the off state. i Just tested it 5 times.

Yes. You would want to put a switch on the power side. Also it will remember which setting was last used. So a pattern change button us really optional.

My unit rotates setting every time it powers on and off. It doesn't reset it goes to the next setting as if you are hitting the power button to find what set of lights you want on.

Yes, it remembers the last setting that you had it on when you turn it off.

if it's set at on when the power goes out, it will automatically come back on when the power is restored

I try and leave my switch on and use the remote. But on the times when I forget, the fan and light resume the operations that were going when the switch was turned off.

yes it keeps the last one that was selected when power is turned off then turned back on

I have put the bulb away 'til next Christmas, but my memory is that it does not remember. It starts in a default mode every time it is turned on even if power is not removed. Others says it will remember so my memory is probably faulty. Maybe it only starts on default when you use the remote, but remembers with the wall switch. I did not experiment with the light switch dimmer. I would count on using the remote to dim.

No, the power switch is a dial, so it would be on the same setting when the power comes back on.

If you leave the light on in a particular mode for 3-6 seconds it will remember that mode when you turn it off. If you turn it off and on too quickly it will advance to the next mode every time it's turned on and off.

mine does not. It needs to be cycled back on... However, the unit can be sensitive to power surges and things like hair dryers turning on and off. Occasionally, you will just see the light turn on by itself. Not much of a problem, unless it goes on while you are away. I understand this is an issue with all switches that work on a conduction system. (like those lamps where you just touch the base and they turn on)

I don't think so. It will reset itself during a power failure (or being unplugged) back to the state it was in when it lost power.
