Interference suppressed

No light is switched on in the event of certain heat effects: bushes moved by the wind, warm exhaust air or small animals whose movements are excluded by the optional selective detection lenses.

 Range stabilized

The precise range stabilization is based on variable sensitivity. In winter, it is reduced when the difference between body temperature and air is high, and increased in summer when the difference in temperature is lower. The detection area is aligned with one meter accuracy.
