The Motion Sensors work best when you allow them to acclimate to the room's temperature before testing. I usually allow 2-3 minutes.
Although many use them (I have not - I have kept mine of Medium factory setting with both the old system and new), they have a low, medium, and high sensitivity switch. If you slide the bracket sensor that attaches to the wall off, you will see it.
I have noticed the SS3 Motion Sensors are less sensitive than the previous ones. While it is not too much of a concern in my personal opinion (as they still work well enough that no one can enter a room or area without trigger), I previously could not come within 20-30 feet with SS2 Motion Sensors. I would say 10 feet on the medium setting is about right with SS3.
