Narrow Mode Configuration

Simply by flipping the lens the detection area can change from wide detection to narrow detection. When the lens is installed in narrow mode, the detector will auto detect the lens and change the detection area to create a curtain-style detection with a fixed range of 24m (non-adjustable). In the dual-technology model (FLX-A-DT and FLX-A-DAM) changing to narrow mode will automatically disable microware sensitivity.
