      Signals may be shielded by the gate. Connect a new antenna (1~1.2m BVR 0.75mm2) to the old antenna, and fix it vertically on the wall, ensuring the total height from the antenna's top to the ground is approximately 1.5m.

      This issue may occur if the Force Adj. (VR) is set too low. Inspect the Force Adj. (VR) and increase the force. Another potential cause is an obstruction. Make sure the gate's path is clear.

      There might be an issue with the magnetic limit switch. Note that the two magnet brackets (fixed plate) are different: one is higher and another is lower. Try exchanging their positions. Also, try exchanging the limit switch wires CL (close) and OP (open).
