Hi very interesting video. I have a question about the available settings regarding the flash or lamp settings. Is there any setting to increase the time that lamp is flashing intermittently?. By default lamp only is flashing during the opening phace them stop and start the flashing whe close period is starting again.
Hi Juan, With regards to the flashing output duration, there is a feature in level 1 of the programming settings to enable ‘Pre-Flash’. This will set the flashing lamp output to start 3-seconds before the gate operates. The main purpose for this output is to signal to users that the gates are in operation, and so will only output 12V whilst the gate are carrying out a manoeuvre. If you require an output to be sustained for a longer period, then you could always utilise one of the other outputs such as ‘OGI’ (‘SCA’ on older models). This will output 24VDC and will only turn off when in the fully closed position. In all other positions, the outputs will be as follows: Opening manoeuvre - Slow flash Open Position - Light On Permanently Closing manoeuvre - Quick flash The other alternative would be to change the output configuration using either the OVIEW programming tool, or the BIDIWIFI (see out other videos on these tools). This will enable you to change the parameters of the output settings and change the behaviour from a flashing warning light to a courtesy light output. This will come on for a set time period as soon as an operation commenced, or you could even program a channel on your remote control to turn this on without the need to open the gates. I hope the above helped! If you need any further advice, please let us know. Many thanks The Easygates Direct Team
