6. Betjeningsvejledning
The L 40 SC operates automatically based on its sensor settings and app configurations.
6.1 Betjening af bevægelsessensor
The integrated passive infrared sensor detects heat emitted by moving objects (e.g., people, animals) within its detection zone. When motion is detected and the ambient light level is below the set twilight threshold, the light will activate.
