The hard wired vehicle sensor lets you know any time
a vehicle enters or leaves the driveway. The probe of
the vehicle sensor det
ects metal objects, such as mov-
ing cars, in a ten to twelve foot radius of the sensor.
The vehicle sensor probe should be buried parallel to
or under the driveway. Then the direct burial wire is
run back to the control box that is located in the
house. The probe will detect vehicles moving
by and send a signal through the line to the
control box, which will sound a whistle. The
probe and wire can easily be buried in turf
with a shovel or a lawn edger. If the probe
is to be buried in the middle of the drive, it
is best to have the probe and wire in a con-
duit to protect it from any damage caused by
heavy vehicles. If there are gophers, moles, etcetera, in the area, it would be best to have
the entire length of wire in a conduit.
The control box simply plugs into a 110-volt outlet, and has an on/off switch on the top
of the box. There is a set of contacts to connect the two wires from the probe, as well as
a set of 12-volt DC (500mA max) contacts. The voltage output can be used to operate
sirens, bells, or a light timer. Everything is color coded and labeled for easy reference.
The whistle and the voltage output are adjustable for 2, 4 or 8 seconds. The control box
can run up to three probes, and has a sensitivity control so that it can be custom tuned
to each application.
The probes for the vehicle sensor are available with either 50, 125, or 250 feet of direct
burial cable. We do not recommend splicing the wire if it can be avoided, but if you do
need to splice, make sure it is a water-tight splice.
