Opening and Closing By Itself
#1
Question 
Hi All,

New to all this. Pse can somebody help - this is driving me insane!

Situation: got a Nice Mindy A6F control panel with two electromagnets on it. Single gate, one motor.

Problem: gates seem to be opening and closing by themselves at random intervals. Can go for days without doing it and then do it for about 20 / 30 mins at a time seemingly without any predictability.

What I've done so far: changed DIP switch code (2^10 = 1024 combos) but that's not stopped it.

Tried a bit of self help via google searches but has come to nothing so I've joined this forum.

Could it be any of the following:

1. dodgy board? (fried electrics? slugs?)
2. dodgy wiring off the second electromagnet causing it to short the board? (struggle to see this though because it can go for days without doing it?)
3. somebody cloned by keyfob?
4. could low batteries in the keyfobs cause it?
5. operates on 433.2MHz but I understand a whole heap of other stuff operates on this freq. so could it be interference?
6. is there a battery on the control board? (like a lithium battery that computers have on their motherboards?)

Maybe I'm clutching at straws but this is driving me insane. Mahooosively grateful for any advice. Cheers,

Reply
