Description
Protect-800 - Wireless Vehicle Detecting Driveway Alarm

The Wireless Vehicle Detecting Driveway Alarm is the perfect way to keep an eye on your driveway or outdoor space with ease and reliability. This system features a discreet probe that only detects moving steel, so you won’t have to worry about false alarms from animals! The compact transmitter box, powered by three long-lasting lithium batteries, sends a wireless signal up to 800 metres away (400–600 metres in most settings) to 2 receivers that chime and works with lots of different accessories. With adjustable sensitivity, a durable 14-metre cable, and a sleek black design, it’s a simple yet powerful solution for added peace of mind.
How it works
When the hidden Probe detects moving steel, it sends a wireless signal to both the Receivers. The signal can reach up to 800 metres in clear line of sight, typically equating to 400-600 metres in most applications.
The Receivers will chime and can operate additional devices connected to it, ensuring seamless and reliable operation for a variety of applications.
Wireless Transmitter & Probe:

The Wireless Transmitter, powered by three CR123A batteries, is fully weatherproof for reliable outdoor use. It comes with a 14-metre cable connected to the Vehicle Detecting Probe, enabling the transmitter box to be installed discreetly and in an ideal location for optimal wireless transmission. The probe is designed for easy installation just below the surface or grass, parallel to the driveway. Engineered to detect only moving steel, it is perfect for areas where large animals roam, ensuring no false alarms. Even when positioned near a locked steel gate, the system will only activate if the gate moves. To protect the cable from damage by small ground animals, we recommend encasing it in a durable protective sleeve. The Transmitter Board includes adjustable sensitivity settings, allowing you to fine-tune the alarm for precise performance.

Optional Remote

The optional remote control allows for convenient management of the indoor receiver, enabling users to arm, disarm, and stop alerts remotely. The remote operates independently of specific zones and can control groups of zones. For instance, Arm (1-3) button arms group 1 (zones 1-3), while Arm (4-6) button arms group 2 (zones 4-6). Similarly, Disarm (1-3) and disarm (4-6) disarm these groups. During an alert, Stop (1-3) or Stop (4-6) can stop the audible alarm, strobe LEDs, and clear the zone LED with successive presses. This system enhances the flexibility and usability of the receiver.
