Sensors & controls
Sensor sensitivity settings for hot climates
Hot climates and strong sun can increase false triggers or missed detections if sensitivity is left on factory defaults.
Commissioning
Adjust PIR sensitivity and time-on after observing real traffic.
Pet/wildlife and HVAC drafts are common confounders.
Hardware selection
Some sensors handle temperature ranges better—read ambient specs.
Shield sensors from direct sun where possible.
Support
Provide a tuning checklist to installers.
NMF includes climate notes on relevant outdoor sensor sheets.
