  • Page 1 Dakota Alert ™ WMT-3000 Wireless Transmitter Owner’s Manual...
  • Page 2 Installation: The WMT-3000 transmitter is used with the Dakota Alert WR-3000 receiver. The WMT-3000 transmitter uses a passive infrared (PIR) detector to detect people, vehicles or large animals at the monitored location. When the transmitter detects an object, it will send a signal to the receiver, which will sound one of four different tones (Classical, Westminster Chime, Ding Dong, or Whistle) for a few seconds.
  • Page 3 For maximum range between the transmitter and receiver, the transmitter should be mounted on a wooden post or tree (steel posts may cause interference with the radio signal). Although the maximum range is about 3,000 feet, obstructions such as hills, trees, metal siding, and stucco can reduce the range.
  • Page 4 2. Locate the dip switches in the WMT-3000 transmitter module (fi gure 2). 3. The fi rst eight dip switches are for the frequency setting (256 combinations). Set switches 1-8 to match the eight switches in the receiver. 4. Switches 9 and 10 are for the zone/ channel setting on the transmitter.
  • Page 5 Mounting the transmitter: 1. Select a location to mount the transmitter, such as a post or tree. 2. For best results, the transmitter should be about three to four feet off the ground, and about 20 feet from the side of the drive.
  • Page 6 Coding the receiver: 1. Open the receiver case by inserting a small screwdriver into one of the pry notches on the side of the case. (refer to receiver manual) 2. Gently lift off the front cover. 3. Locate the eight dip switches on the receiver and make sure they are set identically to dip switches 1-8 on the transmitter.

    Troubleshooting the WMT-3000 Although the WMT-3000 should be very reliable, there are occasions when you might have false alarms or a failure to alert. If you are getting false alarms, please try this: • Make sure that the transmitter is not pointing at a road in the distance.
