Gate Does not Open From the Fully Closed Position (one beep every two seconds)

Possible causes: 

Closing infrared gate safety beams interrupted

Closing infrared safety beams faulty, misaligned or disconnected

Damaged Safe Common input


Possible solutions: 

Ensure that no people or objects are in the path of the beam

Ensure that the Safety Open and Safety Close LEDs are lit – if not, the inputs can be permanently bridged to Com, or the controller can be reset to factory defaults.

Bridging the safety inputs will disable all safety features and poses a safety hazard!

Ensure that the beams are in working order
