[ASSIGNABLE] button to turn on the D Beam controller.

The usable range of the D Beam controller
fig.DBeamRange.eps
The diagram shows the usable range of the
D Beam controller. Waving your hand
outside this range will produce no effect.
When the D Beam controller is responding
to your movement, the D BEAM button
that had been lit will blink.
The usable range of the D Beam
controller will become extremely small when used under
strong direct sunlight. If it does not function as you
expect, adjust the sensitivity as appropriate for the
brightness of your location.
