How to disable Came DIR10 photocells after traffic accident
#1
Hi,

I am hoping someone may be able to help please?

I am not a professional installer however out of necessity have had to learn how to maintain my electric gates (lack of any professionals turning up!)

Due to two teenagers crashing into my gate pillar last night on an E Scrambler (severely injuring themselves in the process) part of my wall has fallen down and one of my CAME DIR10's has fallen off with the bricks! The DIR concerned is the one with only two connectors inside it (I understand this to be the TX unit?) 

Until we can rebuild the wall and reinstall the photocells correctly I was wondering if there is a way on the control board (CAME ZA3) to disable the photocells so I can at least open and shut the gates for a while. I assume the control system believes that there is a permeant blockage between the photo cells and therefore won't allow usage of the gates. This is the issue I am seeking to bypass.

Having downloaded manuals, watched videos (mostly in foreign languages) I am left confused as to whether or not there is a simple way (eg just disconnecting the photocells or whether there is  switch or a temporary "bridge" I need to put in place on the board? Hope this makes sense the way am explaining it?

thanks for any advice or guidance...
