Can it be adjusted to lower sensitivity? (ie: so it only picks up for about 20' or less?)

This from Reviewer, 'Joe': "Here is a tip, you can cut down the amount of area the motion sensor picks up by just putting a couple small strips of masking tape vertically along the edges of the motion sensor fresnal lense, you can also do this across the top and bottom of the lense to narrow the detection field vertically. Simple thinking and it works like a charm."

no there are no adjustments available besides the 2 tone leves. we have the sensor zip tied to a stake and its aimed at te house. im sure its hackable/

No. For me to decrease the area being monitored I have it facing my home instead of away from it. Try that if feasible for you. Mine is on a tree facing the front of my house.

It seems like all the settings up til about 7. I've learned to adapt to it. After a while you discover it's not a really big deal.

No. I wish you could, but it's a pretty basic unit. I was thinking of experimenting with it by putting some translucent tape over the sensor to reduce its sensitivity, but I haven't gotten around to it yet. I'll post another review if I do.

You cannot adjust the length of the detection sensor, however it has a switch for low, medium or high sensitivity. You can also move the sensor if it is aimed at an area where there is constant movement and it gets triggered a lot.

The sensitivity can be set by a screw at the bottom of the pool device. If you set it too low, the alarm will set even from the waves the filter makes. There is no low limit.

The sensitivity settings are adjustable. We have ours set to the most sensitive setting, and movement picks up at close to 50 feet. Overall angle of sensitivity is about 120 degrees (in the real world) of width though the wider 'angles' are less sensitive than when movement is captured straight on if that makes sense.

Actually it will focus down to 20 ft which is better than 10 meters. Hope this helps.

depends on where its installed and sensitivity (cant remember if its adjustable). but it should/will out of the box.

You can adjust it but not a lot. The picture is pretty mucj the lowest it will get :)

YesBelow 20" it reads to 0.00"But I'd say if you are using it for that low of a range I wouldn't use this one

There's a black lever on the side, that moves a metal guide up/down, which is probably your lowest setting. Anything bigger would require one of the attachments, and they're all labeled.

False! I have used it mostly on its lowest setting and you can barely hear it is even on.

Not familiar with Sennheiser lab mic, but if there is a gain adjustment on it, try reducing the gain.

Just checked mine and there is some adjustment possible. Not being familiar with your set-up, I can't say for sure it can be adjusted that much. I'm quite pleased with mine.

Should be an adjustment screw on side to set sensitivity. Make small adjustments and it should work.

Most definitely. I am only 5 feet as well and I don't even use the lowest setting.

There is no sensitivity adjustment on the bottom, you can only point it down away from trees and bushes. I have mine set so it will not turn on till something moves across it's path from 0-18 feet away. My trees and bushes are 19 feet away in a 180 degree angle.
