No dumb questions at all.

The modulator has a light sensitive sensor connected to a long thin cord that you place somewhere that is exposed to open light. If there is enough ambient light, the modulator stays on. If the ambient light goes down, then the modulator turns off. [url=http://www.webbikeworld.com/Reviewed-motorcycle-products/comagination/visipath/visipath.htm]The review I linked to has a picture of one such setup. It's Photo 5 (the photo isn't named, but you'll know it's the right one when you see a white arrow pointing to the sensor). Hope this helps.

Well..how about that!.. Very cool. Thanks for clearing that up for me.
