Note from Dakota Alert:
We have recently discovered that we had a technical inaccuracy in the manufacturing process on some of our wireless transmitter modules. In order to correct this inaccuracy we unfortunately must reduce the maximum transmission range between our transmitters and receivers. The range on our 3000 Series products will now be about 600'. While we are still confident that we have some of the best wireless driveway alarms on the market, we regret any inconvenience this may cause. If you need more range than our 3000 Series is capable of providing, please consider our MURS products which still have a range of several miles.
The WPA-3000 is an extremely reliable driveway alarm that is used to detect vehicles only.
The transmitter operates on one 9-volt battery and has 50 ft of direct burial wire connecting the probe to the exterior case. The probe is buried parallel to the driveway, and will detect vehicles passing by within approximately 10-12 feet.
The direct burial cable can be run to a tree or post nearby, where the transmitter box is located. When a vehicle drives by, the transmitter will send a signal to the WR-3000 receiver up to 3,000 feet away.
The WPA-3000 is ideal in locations where there may be deer or other large animals that would cause false signals with a motion detecting system. Also, because the probe is buried underground, it is less noticeable than other wireless systems.
The transmitter is weatherproof and meant for exterior locations. Up to four zones can be monitored with additional transmitters. The transmitters can be programmed so they will each sound a different tone at the receiver.
