Motion detection function
The detection of movements is done through the "passive infrared" principle ("PIR"). The device
generally reacts to heat radiation changes within its detection area. This is achieved with the
help of the so-called PIR sensors, which are highly sensitive in the infrared range. The geome-
try of the detection field is ensured by a lens system that lets infrared light pass through and
concentrates incident radiation on the sensors. So-called "detection radiation" are formed
through the lens system and cause a clear signal jump to be detected when they enter.
Note: The term "detection radiation" refers to the imaginary line that begins in the sensor, goes
through the lens system and continues in a straight line outside of the device. The device itself
does not emit any radiation.

The detection of heat sources through a motion detector is influenced by the following criteria:
–
Geometry of the detection field:
A motion detector that faces downwards at an angle is different from one that looks
straight ahead into infinity (Figure
–
Distance between heat source and motion detector: the further away the heat source is
from the sensor, the weaker the evaluable signal on the sensor (Figure
–
Size of the heat source, e. g. adult or child (Figure
–
Temperature of the heat source: surfaces at 98.6 °F (37 °C) radiate more intensely than at
