The first 8 dip switches are for the
frequency
setting (256 combinations) (figure 1-1). Set the first 8
switches to match the 8 switches in the receiver.
3. Switches 9 & 10 are for the zone/channel
setting on the
transmitter (Figure 1-2). The four zones are shown in
the table at right.
Mounting the transmitter:
1. The probe will detect vehicles up to about 10 feet away. Lay the probe beside the driveway, then test
the unit by having a car drive by. Once the unit is tested, the probe can be buried. The probe should be
buried to a depth of 12 inches, laying parallel to the drive. If your driveway is one car wide, bury the
probe right next to the drive (figure 2). If your driveway is two or more cars wide, bury the probe in the
middle of the drive.
2. If the probe and wire will be in a high traffic area, it is best to bury both in conduit. The wire should be
at least 3 inches below the surface to keep it from being damaged by garden equipment.
3. In order to protect the wire, it would also be best to have it in conduit where it is exposed above
ground below the transmitter box.
4. Mount the transmitter box on a wooden post or a tree.
5. For best result the transmitter should be at least 3 to 4 feet off the ground.
