Review: Installed the Dakota Alert 4000 Wireless Driveway Probe Alarm System July 2019 because we live on a 40 acre parcel with a long out of sight driveway entrance to front and backyard. Wanted a warning of vehicles entering yard without nuisance warnings of wildlife constantly going in and out. Transmitter probe is set about 20' up the driveway from the main road on one side at a depth of about 10". Driveway is about 14' wide. Now we get ample warning for house and backyard traffic. Placed a receiver outside at my tool shed under the eaves in the backyard (500'+ over hills, house and trees from transmitter) and one in the house. The tool shed receiver is still going strong but house one failed so ordered this as a replacement (Expensive but felt naked without it). Our transmitter is approximately 300' from the house (over a hill, through trees and into house). Used a vehicle with an AC outlet to set up the new receiver. Set up works great if you have a second person in the vehicle. Needing AC to set up the receiver is the only drawback of this system for us. First set up for house and tool shed was with my tractor and an inverter. We felt unsecure when the house receiver failed and surprised the house one (indoors) failed before the tool shed (outdoors) one did. The transmitter has replaceable batteries. It has seen -44C (-47.2F)2021 to +40C (104F)2021 temps since 2019 and still works and have not needed to change the batteries, yet...knock on wood. Transmitter is in the woods (shaded from direct sunlight). I’m with you, shaking my head, not possible but date on the batteries don’t lie. There is a sensitivity setting on the transmitter. Lightning will set it off if set too high. It took a short time for me to get it tuned to our needs. Would I buy this system again or suggest to others? Absolutely! UPDATE, November 02 2025: Initial system purchased July 2019. Transmitter still on original batteries. Purchased new batteries but have not needed to install. The temp extremes these batteries have gone through…not fathomable. One receiver failed and replaced in 2022 (expensive) Are there better systems out there? Maybe? Compare Apples to Apples when doing research. Would I go with this system again? Absolutely! I still feel bad for not having this installed for my wife/family when I was working out of country.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What's the difference between this system and the dakota alert dcma-2500 driveway motion alert kit, which costs 3-1/2 times as much?**
A: They no longer manufacture the 2500 which is why the price is so high. Go with the 4000 since you soon will not be able to buy components for the 2500. The 4000 receiver is smaller with the addition of a light and is a much better design.

**Q: How long does the battery last?**
A: Mine have been working for 16 months without being replaced. And they trigger probably 4 times a day minimum.

**Q: On the dakota alert dcma-4000 wireless detector driveway alarm system can the transmitter send signal to two receivers at same time?**
A: OFFERS AN EXPANDABLE ALARM SYSTEM - You can add up to 16 different transmitters to the DCR-4000 Receiver if you wish to monitor a larger perimeter. DCMA-4000 is not compatible with 2500 or 3000 series products.

**Q: Can you power this with POE?**
A: Sorry, Power Over Ethernet is not an option.  The receiver is powered via a plug in transformer that goes from 110 VAC to 12 VDC.
