How to fix Topens EK280 that opens but doesn't close?
- P

  If your Topens gate opener opens but doesn't close, first check if the connection of the photocell beam is not blocked, assuming a photocell is being used. Also, the closed limit switch might be broken. To check it, remove the BLUE, GREEN, and YELLOW wires of the arm from the control board and use a jumper wire to short the ULT, COM, and DLT terminals; if the arm runs normally, the limit switch is faulty. If neither of these resolves the issue, the control board itself could be faulty and may need replacing.

Why Topens Gate Opener automatically opens, but does not automatically close?

  If your Topens gate opener automatically opens but doesn't automatically close, the setting of DIP switch #1 might be incorrect. Ensure the DIP switch is set correctly according to the push/pull to opener installation of the gate opener.

Why Topens EK280 does not respond to the remote control?
- A
  Anita JacksonAug 14, 2025
  If your Topens gate opener isn't responding to the remote, there are several potential reasons. First, ensure the remote has been properly programmed to the control board. If it has, the remote's battery may be dead; try replacing it. Another possibility is a broken limit switch. To test this, remove the BLUE, GREEN, and YELLOW wires from the control board, then use a jumper wire to short the ULT, COM, and DLT terminals. If the arm now runs normally, the limit switch is faulty. Lastly, the control board itself could be faulty and need replacement.

What to do if Topens EK280 moves a little and then stops?
- C
  Carolyn ClarkAug 18, 2025
  If your Topens gate moves a little and then reverses or stops, it could be that the selected force is too small to move the gate. Try turning the Potentiometer clockwise to increase the force. Also, disconnect the gate from the gate operator and check that the gate slides freely without any binding.

What to do if Topens Gate Opener Power LED does not turn on?
- M
  Michael WilliamsAug 22, 2025
  If the Power LED on your Topens gate opener does not turn on, ensure the connection between the battery and control board is correct and fastened. Check the fuse in the control board and replace it if it's burnt out. If the problem persists, the control board itself might be faulty and need replacement.

Why my Topens Gate Opener's Power LED flashes rapidly and doesn't run?
- J
  Joshua MatthewsAug 27, 2025
  If the Power LED on your Topens gate opener flashes rapidly and the opener doesn't run, it's likely due to an over-discharged battery. Check the battery voltage; it should be above 22V for the gate opener to function normally.

How to troubleshoot Topens EK280 when only the CODE LED is slightly on?
- R
  Richard LambAug 31, 2025
  If your Topens gate opener isn't running and only the CODE LED is slightly on, the batteries may not be connected to the control board, or the wire connection of the batteries is loosened. Note that two 12V batteries are required to power up the gate opener. The adapter included in the package is only for charging the batteries.
