Tamper alarms.
Beam tamper in closed position.

n cases where the safety beams have been tampered with, the safety protocols will still allow the gates to open but will not allow the gates to close.
This safety feature can be turned into a security risk by anyone with ill intention. The safety beam input tampering alarm feature gives you a ealry
warning of any tampering that may have occured while you were away from the property. If the gates are in the closed position and the safety beam
input is trigger for longer than 20 seconds, then the alarm output will become active. This output would usually be connected to a visual warning
device such as a light or to a zone on the household alarm system.
In the case of a light being used, on approach to the entrance the user is alerted to the attempt to compromise their security. Our advise is that the
user not trigger the gates to open, in this situation, but rather to continue driving to their nearest armed response standby point or to the nearest
police station. This way they can ask for an escort onto the property.
Safety beam alarm mode is available in all modes of operation so long as a set of safety beams is installed.
