Notes

The IWS600-KY does not input the "H" and "L" keys based on whether a person is present or absent, but rather detects slight movements of people to press the keys. For example, if a person appears and then leaves after 5 seconds, the "H" key may be followed by the "L" key after 5 seconds, or it may respond to slight movements by pressing the keys alternately as H→L→H→L. To determine if a person is present or absent, check whether the "H" or "L" key has been pressed within a certain period of time.
