Mag-lock not activating after close

[ldkerlukeHome]

Hi,

Firstly, I would check to see if the ELS output is giving out voltage (should be around 12v) once a command has been given.
Secondly, if the ELS is giving out voltage, check the relay to see whether it is switching from a NC to NO once the command has been given.

Thanks Michael,
I have checked that and the ELS does appear to be sending out voltage.  The lock is also powered at 12 v with the transformer and wires to it intact.  The challenge I am having is figuring out where the relay is in the system - could it be imbedded in the magnetic lock itself?  So I am wondering if the relay has failed or the lock has failed.  One of the somewhat disappointing things is every time I seem to open the Nice MC824H controller unit, I find another wire that is loose or broken, so when I fix it and re install the unit, with BlueBUS search, motor designation and positions search’s i get excited that I have sorted out the problem.  But it still does not lock the gate when closed with the electromagnetic lock and as such, the number one gates seems to bounce a little with closing and can trigger the photocell on the outside of the gate to start this close-open-close continuous sequence.  I have tried to set the maximum close position on the motor 1 to minimize this be cannot seem to easily set the position even with an Oview programmer interface.
