DETECTION ZONE & SENSITIVITY ADJUSTMENT

Cuddeback can detect an animal up to 100 feet. However, this detection range is depen-

dant upon ambient air temperatures. The cooler the temperatures the farther Cuddeback

can sense an animal. In very hot weather (above 80° F) the sensor may only sense up

to 20 feet. You can change the sensitivity of Cuddeback's motion/heat sensor using the

method described on page 19.

However, you can also adjust the sensitivity by moving a small black removable jumper

located below the LCD display. When this jumper is in the lower position, standard sen-

sitivity is selected. When this jumper is in the upper position, high sensitivity is select-

ed. We recommend leaving the jumper in the lower position. However, in hot weather

(above 80° F) you may want to use the upper position to increase detection distances.

You may need to use a small tweezers to access the jumper. If you lose the jumper your

Cuddeback will still function properly with the sensitivity set to standard. If you are get-

ting false detections lower the sensitivity using the jumper or software menu.
