Faac 415 can't reset from manual to operate mode - Stephen Q - 08-01-2024

Just had to replace large gate post and uninstall then reinstall faac 415.
Getting full electricity through as electro magnetic plate binds very strongly to lock leaf but when gate is activated to open it moves four inches and locks out. The cylinder arm is not retracting and prevents further movement then the system seems to lock out and I have to turn off and repower to reset but it repeats process.
I think the manual override is the problem as I can't reset out of manual. The release system just spins rather than going back to operational.
Hope that makes sense.
Does anyone have any similar experience?
Thank you in advance. Smile

Hi Stephen Q, were you able to solve this issue? I'm having the same problem. I had to manually override the opener due to power outage and now it will not re-engage. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!
