MESSAGE DESCRIPTION & SOLUTION
CLOSING IR
BEAM
BLOCKED
OPENING IR
BEAM
BLOCKED
The Safety Beams are blocked or faulty.
 Remove anything that may be obstrucng the beams.
 Look on the controller to see what beam input is acve. Check that the beam connected
to this input is funconing correctly.
 Check the beam wiring for corrosion and that the wiring is ght.
 Check for insects inside the beam housing.
 If the beams are wireless, check the baeries.
 Make sure the beams do not exceed their maximum operang range.
 Check that the beams are not being aected by sunlight. This usually occurs in early
morning or late aernoon if the sun shines directly into the Receiver beam. Some makes
of beams, other than DACE, can be aected by uorescent lights.
 If you have mulple beams, make sure they are not cross talking i.e. the receiver from the
one set is receiving the signal from two transmier beams. Transmier beams may aect
adjacent receiver beams if they are not spaced far enough apart. Interference can be
checked by blocking one transmier and seeing if its receiver is sll being triggered.
 A set of beams may have been removed and ‘Reset Beams’ has not been acvated on the
Beam Sengs menu. For safety reasons, the controller will never remove beams
previously detected without running this feature rst.
HOLIDAY
LOCKOUT
The controller has been placed into Holiday Lockout mode.
 If the LED for the LCK/STP input on the controller is acve, check any inputs unknowingly
acvang this funcon e.g. a keyswitch, a keypad etc.
 If the LED for the LCK/STP input is not acve then disable Holiday Lockout on a remote by
pressing selected buon/s
 Holiday Lockout might be acvated from Time Manager. Clear the acve me slot in Time
Manager.
 Try acvang the input device, keypad or keyswitch, and deacvate it again.
MOTOR FUSE
BLOWN
The controller has detected that the main motor fuse is blown.
 Check to see if blown and replace this with an equivalent 20A fuse.
 Check that the fuse contacts are free from carbon build up.
 Check that the fuse ts ghtly in the fuse holder
H-BRIDGE
FAULT
The controller has detected that an H-Bridge fault has occurred. An H-bridge fault may occur for
various reasons such as the gate being stuck in the open or closed posions.
 Ensure that the gate moves freely if disengaged.
 Check that the baery is charged (Info Screen), the baery voltage should be above 12V.
 Check that the motor wires are connected properly and making proper contact.
If this fault persists the controller might need to be repaired by a DACE repair centre.
MOTOR
DISCONNECT
The controller has detected that the electric motor is disconnected.
 Check that the motor wires are connected properly and making proper contact.
 Check for any carbon build up on the motor wire pins.
 Disconnect the motor and try running the motor by touching the motor wires directly to the
baery.
 If it is an old motor, the motor brushes might be wearing out.
MAINS FAIL The controller has detected that the mains power is not connected.
 Make sure the mains supply is on and that the transformer plug point is on.
 Make sure the transformer is connected to the controller properly and all wiring is ght.
 Check that there is mains at the transformer and that the transformer output is giving out
more than 16V AC for a 12V system and 22V AC for a 24V system
PARTY MODE The controller has been placed into Party Mode with a remote.
 Press the remote buon that has been allocated to the Party Mode funcon, to deacvate
Party Mode.
 Press the remote trigger buon twice within 4 seconds to take the operator out of Party
Mode.
 Deselect Party Mode from the Auto Close menu.
ACCESS
DENIED
Time Manager has denied an acon from a remote. To enable this acon, clear the me period
aecng this acon in Time Manager.
