Menu 9 – Motor 1 Obstruction Detect Margins
This sets the current sensitivity margin above the normal run current to trip the gates/doors if an
obstruction is detected. Different obstruction margins can be set for the open and close direction. Also
the response time is adjustable.
The minimum margin will allow least pressure applied to trip the gates/doors if it hits an object. The
maximum margin will allow for a large amount of pressure applied to trip the gates/doors if it hits an
object.

Margin Example

Motor is running at 2 Amps and the margin is set to 1.5 Amps, an obstruction detect will occur at
3.5 Amps (Normal Running Current + Margin).
For high margin settings the supply transformer should be large enough to supply the high margin
current.
If the gates/doors hits an object on closing it will automatically stop and then re-open. If the gates/doors
hit an object on opening it will automatically stop.
