* The S indicator LED is on as long as the board is receiving power.
Problem:
The gate is closed and will not open when I
send it a signal to open.
Solution:
If the OPEN light does not illuminate when you send
the opening signal, then try shorting between terminals
1 and 2. If the short causes the gate to open, then the
problem is in the activating device itself.
If the STOP LED is not lit, verify that a jumper or an
accessory is installed between terminals 1 and 4.
Check fuses F1 and F2.
If the motor is on, then make sure the clutch adjustment
supplies enough force to move the gate leaf.
Make sure the Manual Release Lever has not
disengaged the drive motor. The Manual Release Lever
should be rotated counterclockwise.
Problem:
The gate is opened and will not close when I
send it a signal to close.
Solution:
Check to see if the FTSW light is illuminated. If it isn't,
then something is triggering the reversing device. If you
have no reversing devices installed, then connect a
jumper between terminals 1 and 5.
Problem:
The gate is open, and when I signal the gate
to close, the motor runs a little but the gate doesn't
close.
Solution:
The setting for DIP switch S8 may be incorrect. Switch
S8 defines the direction in which the leaf moves when
the gate is closing. Compare your gate installation to
Figure 13 to determine your gate's orientation and then
check the setting of switch S8.
Problem:
The gate will not open (or close) completely.
Solution:
If the motor is running, then check your clutch
adjustment. Tighten the clutch if necessary.
You may have set a limit switch incorrectly. To define
the problem, check your LEDs to see if the FCA light
is off for the fully opened position (or the FCC light is
off for the fully closed position).
If the LEDs are correct, check first for an obstruction in
the path of the moving gate leaf. If there is no
obstruction, then try setting the limit switch for the
position again.
