This Wireless Alert System combines two of the hottest products on the market. First you have the wireless transmitter that uses an infrared beam to detect people or vehicles up to a distance of 80 feet. Then you have the wireless portable receiver that receives the radio signal. The receiver can work up to 600 feet away allowing you to be mobile and still be aware of your monitored area. The pager/receiver is extremely compact at only 2.5in x 1.25in x .75in. It has a large, clear, and easy to read LCD display, that is used for it's logging and date and time stamp features.

The WMT-PR3000 includes the WMT-3000 transmitter and the PR-3000 portable receiver.

Transmitter
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. The transmitter can be used as a driveway alarm, or in the back yard to monitor around tool sheds or patios.

Receiver
The PR-3000 receiver is compatible with all Dakota Alert 3000 Series transmitters (WMT-3000, WPT-3000, WHT-3000, UT-3000, and IR-3000). The PR-3000 is capable of receiving and storing alert signals from four zones. When a signal is received, the zone will be displayed on the LCD screen and the receiver can be set to give an audible tone or a silent vibrate alert. Each zone can store up to 400 events with a time and date stamp or up to 999 events without a time and date stamp. The PR-3000 is powered by a rechargeable Li-Ion battery which will hold a charge for up to 10 days.

I was very skeptical of these type products, but settled on ordering the Dakota due to reviews (and not really trusting those since you never know who's writing them). If legit, the 25 or so reviews for the Dakota base unit type system were very good. Glad to say these things absolutely work as advertised. I got this one for the driveway so my wife could carry the portable receiver with her if in a back room of the house while alone and maybe too far to hear the tabletop or wall-mount type base unit alarming, or if in our lower-level basement/garage. After seeing how well it works, ordered the base unit type kit with one transmitter and 3 additional transmitters, so using those 4 to make a perimeter around our (smallish) house for the most part. Range on these seems to really be as advertised, close to 80 feet or so, but be sure the jumper in the transmitter is set to high range for this per the manuals. Also important to set the filter jumper for outside use, and I would recommend setting jumper for LED-on/off to OFF to conserve battery life. Important also to play around with placement and angle of where transmitters are 'seeing'. Think of it as more of a straight-line beam than a fanned-out cone shape of where it detects, so that factors into height and side-to-side angles of where you want it to 'see'. Easier to get this right with a temporary mount on a post or wherever rather than having to adjust after nailing in place. Also make sure no bushes, low tree limbs, or other items that move in the wind are in the path of the 80-foot or so line of sight. One of mine tripped right after installing due to a heavy stream of rainwater pouring from the corner of my roof, where the gutters are blocked. Bottom line, these puppies work, and hopefully have a long life.
