power or replace batteries
On dual-gate
system, incorrect
gate opens first or
closes first.
a) Incorrect Bipart switch setting a) Change setting of both operator’s Bipart switch settings. One operator
should have Bipart switch ON (operator that opens second) and the other
operator should have Bipart switch OFF (operator that opens first)
