Batteries
The Gate Controller uses four ‘AA’ batteries. If an
Intercom system gives a triple-beep
immediately
after activating, the ‘AA’ batteries in the Gate
Controller are getting low. The average life of the
Gate Controller’s batteries is a year-and-a-half,
depending on use.
The Gate Access Unit uses four ‘C’ batteries. The
Intercom units will emit a triple-beep every ten
minutes, to indicate low batteries in the Gate Access
Unit. The average life of the Gate Access Unit’s
batteries is a year-and-a-half with all functions
enabled. Not activating remotes and enabling
Power-
save Mod
e can extend the battery life up to two
years.
NOTE:
If used in location that will be below -
10°C (20°F) and/or for longer battery
life, Lithium batteries are
recommended.
