Installation Tips
The Dakota Micro wireless add ‐on is a powerful wireless audio/video transmitter, which will allow you to view areas out
of reach of cables. In selecting a location for the transmitter use the following guidelines.
Training videos are available on
the Dakota Micro website at

.
Location within 2,000 feet of receiver location (unless using larger antennas).
Line of site, meaning that there is no obstruction , such as a building or tree belt. Shorter ranges fewer than 300 feet, are
less critical of “line of site”. However, steel buildings and steel walls will interfere with the signal. Walls constructed of
wood and sheetrock are more transparent to the signal. The ability for the signal to penetrate glass depends upon if the
glass is lead lined.
There are several environmental conditions, such as high powered electrical lines, other wireless
device signals from cell phone companies, government agencies and radio stations; for example, that may affect the
range of transmission. Therefore DM cannot guarantee any specific ranges.
Standard transmitters and receivers must be installed indoors in a dry location. For steel buildings, you must use an
external antenna. Waterproof transmitters may be installed outside in the weather/rain.
You may use AgCam
®
cables to mount camera up to 160 feet from transmitter. However Dakota Micro, Inc. power/video
cables are not able to carry audio signal. If you require audio, you must obtain special cables from your dealer.
