Phobos motor movement erratic - Caesium - 18-08-2023
When my gates open they travel quite smoothly, however when they close the arc of movement seems to be very jerky.
I've tried changing all the speed and decel distance settings up and down in all sorts of combinations but nothing seems to make any positive change.
Anyone got any suggestions before I source a pair of gas dampers to try and smooth out the travel?

Hi,
Thanks for the message.
what is the model of operators you are using? it could be related to the geometry measurements listed within the manufacturers instructions.
