If you can switch the light with the physical button without trigger a motion, then it is very simple. When light is switched on And no motion Then disable flow “Switch off after 60sec” ---

The light was switched on because a motion is detected. And from time to time you want avoid that the light will be switch off automatically after 60 sek., right? ---

I want that the light work with the sensor every day from 19 to 7, but sometimes I want to turn on the light with the button and the light is on until I turn off the button. ---

Before 19:00 and after 07:00 it already works, because your flow (automatically switch off) only works between 19:00 an 07:00, right? In the time between 19:00 and 07:00, after the light is switch on by the motion and you want to avid to be automatically switched off. In this case I only See one Option. When the light is switch off And the Countdown Timer is running Then switch light on And stop Countdown Timer. So you have Switch off the light, to Stopp the Countdown Timer. This assumes that you turn off the light via a countdown timer.
