The only real limitation with the ERA series of products is the number of zones.  As mentioned in a previous FAQ article, you can pair as many transmitters to a specific zone as you want.

There’s no limit to the number of receivers you can have in your system.  Whether you have 1, 2, or 4 different transmitters, you can have as many receivers as you want and can spread them throughout your warehouse, store, or office space.

This type of configuration allows you to distribute the sound throughout your facility.  You may, for example, play a receiver in the warehouse and turn the volume up to its maximum setting.  However, because you might keep your door shut in your office, you may want to put your ERA-DCRX receiver in the office and turn the volume down–or even mute it.

My ERA-DSTX Detection Range Dropped From 25 Feet to 15Nine times out of ten nothing has failed. A PIR sensor’s usable range is a moving number set by battery voltage, thermal contrast against the background, and the angle at which the target crosses the beam pattern — none of which show up on a thermometer or a tape measure. Work the checks below in order. Most cases resolve at step 1 or step 3.How Far Will My ERA-DSTX Driveway Sensor Really Reach?A PIR sensor doesn’t measure distance — it measures contrast. It sees a target only when that target is meaningfully warmer or cooler than whatever sits directly behind it, and only when the target moves across the lens’s detection pattern rather than straight at it. Change the background temperature, the approach angle, the battery voltage, or the amount of film on the lens, and the same sensor in the same spot will “lose” ten feet of range with nothing visibly different.Understanding the 12V DC Outputs on Your ERA-DCRX Receiver: A Guide to Zones, Strobes, and BellsIntroduction to the ERA-DCRX Receiver The ERA-DCRX receiver is the heart of your long-range wireless doorbell system, designed for business and warehouse environments.
