Possible Solutions to Electronic Noise Issues

  1. Ensure Proper Earthing

    • The gate motor should be properly earthed according to the model’s installation manual.

    • Earth the charger or switch-mode power supply to a properly bonded earth from the AC mains supply:

    • Connect Earth to G-Speak GND:

  2. Use Shielded Cabling

    • Utilize screened cables to minimize external interference:

  3. Install a Noise Capacitor

    • Fit a noise capacitor between the power supply’s earth and COM on the gate motor to eliminate electrical noise.

  4. Reposition Wiring

    • Move gate station wires away from any high-voltage cables to prevent signal interference.

By following these troubleshooting steps, you can significantly reduce or eliminate electronic noise interference, ensuring clear and reliable communication through your GSM intercom.
