    How to troubleshoot slow movement and beeping issues with my Maximum Controls Controller gate?
    • D
      Dan JonesAug 13, 2025
      If the Maximum Controls Controller gate moves slowly, beeps, doesn't open or close, stops prematurely, or doesn't learn limits, start by checking the GATE SPEED rotary dial to ensure it is set to the MAX position with the LED on. Also, verify the gate isn't too heavy for the operator by checking the manual for the maximum gate weight for your model. Examine the gate hinges to confirm they are not too tight. Check if the GATE “PULL open / PUSH open” switch is set properly. Ensure the manual release on the arm is locked. Relearn limit positions by clearing limits first, press STOP + CLOSE button together for 5 sec (until BEEP is heard), adjust limits and relearn NEW limits.

    What to do if the “MAX SENSE” LED is ON on my Maximum Controls MAX ARM Controller?

      Gail LambertAug 16, 2025
      If the “MAX SENSE” LED is ON on your Maximum Controls Controller, this indicates the ERD entrapment detection is at its most sensitive setting. To resolve this, select a less sensitive setting, ideally between level 10 and 16.

    Why is the “ERD” LED flashing on my Maximum Controls MAX ARM Controller?

      Joseph GlennAug 20, 2025
      If the “ERD” LED is flashing on your Maximum Controls Controller, it could mean that an ERD event has occurred. Check for any obstructions blocking the gate. If there are no obstructions, the ERD sensitivity might be too high for your specific setup, so try readjusting the ERD setting.

    What does it mean if the “OPEN ONLY” LED is ON or FLASHING on my Maximum Controls Controller?
    • D
      Dr. Ashley Parker MDAug 27, 2025
      If the “OPEN ONLY” LED is ON or FLASHING on your Maximum Controls Controller, it indicates that the sensor on the OPEN ONLY input (photocell or edge) may have detected an obstruction while the gate was cycling. It could also mean the photocell on the OPEN ONLY input is misaligned with the reflector, or that the sensor on the OPEN ONLY input isn't wired correctly. The sensor might not be a N.C. monitored sensor that is UL 325 2018 compliant, or the sensor is damaged or malfunctioning.

    Why is the “PHOTO CLS” or “CLS ONLY 10k” LED ON or flashing on my Maximum Controls MAX ARM?
    • A
      Anita KhanSep 1, 2025
      If the “PHOTO CLS” LED is ON or flashing, or the “CLS ONLY 10k” LED is ON or flashing on your Maximum Controls Controller, it might be because a sensor on the PHOTO CLS or CLS ONLY 10k inputs (like a photocell or edge) has detected an obstruction while the gate was closing. It could also mean the photocell is misaligned with the reflector, the sensor isn't wired correctly, or the sensor is not a N.C. monitored sensor that is UL 325 2018 compliant. The sensor might also need to be relearned, or it could be damaged or malfunctioning.

    Why is the “UL Entrap” LED illuminated on my Maximum Controls MAX ARM Controller?
    • J
      John RobertsonSep 4, 2025
      If the “UL Entrap” LED is ON on your Maximum Controls Controller, it indicates that an entrapment event has occurred. Check if any entrapment sensors were triggered, and look for the PHOTO CLS, OPEN ONLY, or OPEN/CLS LEDs to be on.

    Why is the “OBD PORT” LED flashing on my Maximum Controls Controller?
    • D
      Dawn DanielsSep 8, 2025
      If the “OBD PORT” LED is FLASHING on your Maximum Controls Controller, up to 8000 event history and error codes are being downloaded to connected flash drive. It can take up to 5 minutes.
