Review: Works fantastic on big properties and you have a selection of different tunes you can select. - This works so well for our 10 acres. No problems at all. The only problem I have is that 2 main receivers were sent to me by accident. I ordered one receiver, I received the sensor first, then I realized the receiver was supposed to be delivered at the same time but the order was still sitting in MY HISTORY, so I ordered it and I ended up receiving 2 total. Now I’m getting charged to return one, which I think that was completely desertcartS error.
Review: Good Product - This thing is great. Easy set up, works consistently. Only phantom alarms were when a horse knocked it over and it filled with rain. Shook it out and back up and running.

## 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.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Product

This thing is great. Easy set up, works consistently. Only phantom alarms were when a horse knocked it over and it filled with rain. Shook it out and back up and running.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Decent Motion Detector
*by R***Y on April 5, 2024*

We had a DCMT 2500 several years ago, but did not install it on our new property because it was not compatible with the newer DCPT 4000. We added the DCMT 4000 to our system to let us know if there is anyone walking down our driveway. Yes, the DCMT will also detect vehicles, but does not do so consistently, especially in winter compared to the DCPT. The DCMT does do a good job detecting animals/people though.
