The terminal block also features and auxiliary output for

automatic gate.

PE (P.E. Beams input)
PE- (0V for P.E. Beams)
COM (Common -ve ground for accessories)
OSC (Open/Stop/Close trigger)
AUX (Auxiliary output trigger)
Remote Aerial
Some sites cause poor radio reception. Particularly
problematic areas are those where there is a large amount
of metal, like an all steel garage, or an underground car
park with large masses of steel reinforced concrete. These
issues, and others, can create radio reception issues.
Poor radio reception will be noticed by a reduction in the
operating range of the transmitters.
You can evaluate whether fi tting an external aerial will
benefi t as follows:
test the maximum operating range of the transmitter
with the garage door closed; then
test the maximum operating range of the transmitter
with the garage door open.
If the range improves when the door is open you can
install a remote aerial kit to improve reception.
Mount the aerial to a suitable location on the outside of
the garage. Similar to a television aerial, the better the
mounting position the better the reception will be. Where
possible, mount the aerial as high as possible, away from
masses of metal and in a line of sight position to where
you normally use your transmitter.
