For maximum range between the transmitter and receiver, the receiver should be mounted horizontally on a wall and as high off the floor as pos- sible. Although the maximum range is about 3000 feet, things such as hills, trees, metal siding and stucco can all reduce the range.

CODING THE RECEIVER

1.Open the receiver case by inserting a small screw driver into one of the pry notches on the side of the case.

2.Gently lift off the front cover.

3.Locate the 8 dip switches (5) on the receiver and make sure they set identically to the first 8 dip switches (6) on the transmitter. Note: If more than one transmitter is used with the receiver, the first 8 dip switches of all transmitters must match the 8 dip switches of the receiver.

NOTE: Whenever a change is made to the time jumper or the dip switches, the receiver must be turned“OFF”and then back“ON”to operate properly.

CODING THE TRANSMITTER

1.Locate the dip switches in the 3000 series transmitter. (refer to trans- mitter manual)

4.

2.The first 8 dip switches (6) are for the frequency setting (256 combina- tions). Set the first 8 switches to match the 8 switches in the receiver.

3.Switches 9 & 10 (7) are for the zone/channel setting on the transmitter. The four zones are as follows:

Switch 9

Switch 10

Channel

Tune

ON

ON

1+12VDC

TONE, RELAY AND VOLTAGE OUTPUT

1.Each of the four transmitter zones (selectable by switch 9 & 10) will sound a tone and activate the corresponding relay on the receiver.

2.Each of the form“C” relays is rated for 24 VDC at 3 Amp maximum current.

3.The 12 VDC output will activate when the transmitter is set to zone 1.The voltage duration will last for four seconds and has a maximum current of

400mA.

WR-3000 specifications

The Dakota Alert WR-3000 is a state-of-the-art wireless monitoring system designed to offer reliable and efficient property security and surveillance. This system is particularly popular among property owners who want to enhance safety while ensuring they stay informed about any activity in their vicinity. The WR-3000 comes equipped with advanced features and technologies that make it stand out in the market.

One of the primary features of the WR-3000 is its long-range wireless capability. It can transmit signals over distances of up to two miles, depending on the terrain, allowing users to monitor large properties with ease. This feature is particularly beneficial for ranches, large estates, and rural homes where conventional security systems might fall short.

The system utilizes a passive infrared (PIR) sensor, which detects motion based on changes in temperature. This technology ensures high sensitivity and minimizes false alarms caused by non-human movements, such as animals or environmental factors. The PIR sensor can be easily placed in strategic locations around a property, making it highly customizable to suit various monitoring needs.

Another standout aspect of the Dakota Alert WR-3000 is its versatility. The system can support multiple sensors, allowing users to monitor different areas simultaneously. Each sensor can be configured to send alerts to the main unit, where users receive notifications of any activity detected. This feature enables effective surveillance of multiple entry points or zones within a specified area.

The WR-3000 is designed with user convenience in mind. It boasts a simple installation process, requiring no complicated wiring, which makes it accessible even for those without technical expertise. The user-friendly interface allows property owners to customize settings, including sensitivity levels and the type of alerts they wish to receive.

Durability is another crucial characteristic of the Dakota Alert WR-3000. Built to withstand various weather conditions, the sensors are water-resistant and can function optimally regardless of external elements. This durability ensures that the system remains effective year-round.

In conclusion, the Dakota Alert WR-3000 is a robust security solution that combines advanced technology and user-friendliness. Its long-range capability, reliable PIR sensor, customization options, and weather-resistant design make it an excellent choice for homeowners and property managers looking to enhance security and monitoring efforts. With its ease of setup and versatility, the WR-3000 continues to be a preferred choice in the realm of wireless security systems.
