Using the bracket makes it possible to adjust the unit through 180° degree.

In cases where the ground is uneven and therefore not parallel with the base of the unit, it is
possible to adjust the unit vertically by +/- 20 degree (see section 6-B)

Do not change the detection
distance with bracket.
Use the masking seal to
adjust the detection distance.
