- The motion sensor has a 180° detection zone and can detect motion up to 70 feet (21 meters).
- An LED indicator light confirms when motion is detected.

4.2. MotionBright 2-Level Lighting
When dimmable bulbs are used, the MotionBright feature provides energy-saving ambient lighting and full brightness when motion is detected:
- Low Ambient Light: When no motion is detected, the light will remain at a constant low ambient setting.
- Full Brightness: Upon detection of motion, the light will automatically switch to full brightness.
A photocell ensures that the light operates only during nighttime hours.
