Fault finding 

 

There are 8 LED’s on RIO-X that show the states 
of inputs and the gate position.  

Gate  runs  slowly 

This happens when there 

has  been  a  loss  of  power.  The  controller  needs 
to re-find it’s limits. This is done automatically. 

 

Gate  will  not  close 

Check LED’s 4&5. They 

should be ON unless a safety device is active. 

 

Randomly  triggers 

There may be a missing 

remote, or loose wiring in 

[G] 

or 

[D]

 . 

 

Gate stops before fully open or closed. 

Can  be  the  stall  detector  has  sensed  an  object. 
Check for stiff or dry hinges. Increase FORCE pot.  

LED3 flashes 4 times 

- cannot find the limit.

 

Gate  will  not  operate 

- Are there any LED’s 

on?  Check  power  in,  battery  voltage  and  fuses. 
Isolate wiring thus; link [E] to [C]. Link [F] to [C]. 
Empty  terminals  [G]  and  [D].  Does  it  now  work 
on remotes?
