Installation Guide

2 Wireless Driveway Alarm Instruction Manual • 03.04.12
Place the SENSOR immediately next to the driveway to
maximize the sensing range, but at least 25 feet from
roadways, neighbor’s driveways or large moving metal
objects.
The cable connecting the SENSOR and TRANSMITTER
allows for the placement of the TRANSMITTER away from
the driveway in the concealment of landscape or closer
to the RECEIVER.
The approximate transmitting range from the
TRANSMITTER to the RECEIVER is 400 ft. Range can
vary depending on environmental conditions such as RF
interference and topography. Some adjustment may be
required.
NOTE: DO NOT place the TRANSMITTER in the
direct path of a sprinkler. The TRANSMITTER is
water resistant but not waterproof.
If you don’t use the full length of signal cable from
the SENSOR to the TRANSMITTER, coil the extra
cable and bury it beside the transmitter stake.
