OVERVIEW

SETTING UP YOUR RECEIVER
‘Basic Setup’ lets you choose the tune and LED settings you want for Dakota Alert 4000 Series transmitters.
In addition to tune and LED settings, ‘Advanced Setup’ lets you set up exterior sensors using the Relay 1,
Relay 2, and the 12 VDC terminals.
BASIC SETUP
Note: You can connect up to 16 Dakota Alert 4000 Series transmitters to your receiver.
1. Place your receiver and transmitter(s) next to each other.
Note: Be careful not to activate your transmitter until you select the tune you want. If you do accidentally
activate the transmitter on the wrong tune, reselect a tune and reactivate the transmitter.
2. Press and hold the MODE button for three seconds until all LEDs flash and start blinking slowly.
3. Press the (volume) button repeatedly until you find the tune you want to sound when a transmitter
is activated.
4. After you choose a tune, activate the transmitter (for example, press its button or wave your hand over
its motion sensor). The receiver emits a short beep to confirm the transmitter has been coded.
Note: If you accidentally activate the transmitter on the wrong tune, press the (volume) button to
reselect a tune and reactivate the transmitter.
5. If you are coding more than one transmitter, repeat steps 3–4.
6. After your transmitter(s) are coded, press and hold the MODE button until the LEDs stop flashing.
7. To test the transmitter tune, activate the transmitter. You’ll hear the selected tune through your receiver
and the LEDs will flash.
ADVANCED SETUP
Note: You can connect up to 16 Dakota Alert 4000 Series transmitters to your receiver. Each transmitter can
be set to independently sound a tune, flash the LED, or control the 12VDC output and relay outputs for the
selected time.
1. Place your receiver and transmitter(s) next to each other.
Note: Be careful not to activate your transmitter until you select the tune you want. If you do
accidentally activate the transmitter on the wrong tune, reselect a tune and reactivate the transmitter.

CONNECTING WIRES TO THE TERMINALS
The RE-4k Plus receiver has two relay outputs (NO, COM, NC) and a 12 VDC (+ and –) output terminal.
1. To connect lead wires to the terminals, strip off 3/8” (10 mm) of insulation from the end of the wire.
Note: The terminals work with wire gauges from 22 to 16 AWG (low voltage only).
2. With a small screwdriver, press the orange button to open the terminal.
3. Insert the bare end of the wire into the terminal opening, then release the orange button.
The terminal clamps down on the wire.
4. Pull gently on the wire to make sure that your connection is secure.
ADJUSTING THE VOLUME
Press the (volume) button repeatedly to adjust the volume (four levels and off ). The LEDs show the
volume level for four seconds.
LOW BATTERY INDICATOR
If the RE-4k Plus receiver plays your transmitter’s tune twice and the LED blinks slowly for ten minutes after
the transmitter is activated, your sensor’s battery is low. Replace the battery
CANCELLING OUTPUT SIGNALS
After the RE-4k Plus receives a signal, the relay and voltage outputs activate, the chime sounds, and the LED
flashes for 15 seconds. If you want to stop these actions after they have started, briefly press the MODE
button. The receiver resets and is ready to be activated again.
