Patriot RSL - My Gate Will Not Operate, Monitored Entrapment Devices are Installed
- Verify that dip switch DS2 switch 4 (contact edge monitor) is ON pressed down on the right hand side.
- Press and hold the LED indicator on the control board.
- Verify the D5 LED (Contact edge 2nd entrapment) located bottom left corner of the control board is ON dimly.
- If not using a DC voltmeter measure the voltage on J2 pin 6 to ground reading should be approx. 2.5 Vdc.
- Activate the contact edge by depressing it and verify the D5 LED is ON bright now or the voltage drops to 0 Vdc.
- If reading is 5 Vdc then check wire connections from contact edge for proper connection.
- If wire connections are correct then disconnect the contact edge wires from the J2 connector.
- Using an ohm meter verify the resistance measured between the 2 contact edge wires, should be 10K.
- If not contact edge is bad.
- Verify that DS1 dip switch 10 is ON press down on the right hand side.
- Verify that dip switch DS1 switch 8 (photo eye monitor) is ON press down on the right hand side.
- Turn dip switch DS1 3 and 4 OFF. Allows power to be applied to photo eye.
- Press and hold the LED indicator button located on the control board.
- Verify that D11 LED (Photo eye N/C 2nd entrapment) located bottom left corner of the control board is ON.
- If not verify alignment between photo eye transmitter and receiver. Correct if necessary.
- If not then check wire connection from photo eye for proper connection.
- If D11 is ON verify that the D11 Led goes OFF when photo eye beam is broken.
- If D11 does not turn OFF when beam is broken then photo eye is bad.
