Troubleshooting Guide - Centurion Vector2 User Manual

7. Troubleshooting guide

This is a basic checklist for your gate automation system. Should you
experience a fault with the system, see if the symptom corresponds to
any given in the list below. For each symptom listed, the probable cause
and action to be taken is given. Terminals and LEDs referred to in the
fault-finders table usually refer to those found on the VECTOR2
controller in the enclosure that is usually mounted on the gate pillar
closest to the Master VECTOR2 operator.
In the event of the symptom not being listed, consult your installer, or
Centurion Systems, for assistance.
Prior to working inside the control card enclosure,
ensure that the mains supply to the system has been
isolated. With the battery connected, the actuator will
remain operational
