Effective Range of the D Beam Controller
The D Beam controller's effective range is shown in the figure

no effect.

extremely limited when used under strong, direct
sunlight. Please be aware of this when using the D
Beam controller outdoors.
The sensitivity of the D Beam controller can vary
depending on the amount of light in the vicinity of
the unit. If it does not function as you expect, adjust
the D Beam.(p. 70)
