Mains Failure Detection; Battery Low Protection - Centurion D3 User Manual

INTERCOM PUSHBUTTON or REMOTE
If a gate status indicator (LED) has been fitted inside the house (refer below) an
additional confirmation of the functioning of the override is provided. The status LED
will stop flashing and remain ON when the auto-close has been overridden.
MAINS FAILURE DETECTION (D3/D5 ONLY)
Although these systems will continue to operate in the event of a mains power failure
due to the built in battery, it is important to register that there is a problem before the
battery is run flat.
The controller (CP80) monitors whether mains voltage (via the charger transformer)
is present. If not, the gate status LED, will flash twice every 2 seconds to indicate
mains loss.
BATTERY LOW PROTECTION (D3/D5 ONLY)
The controller has circuitry that monitors the state of the battery. During a power
failure energy is drawn from the battery, but not replaced. To prevent the battery
running flat, and being damaged, the protection circuitry shuts off the gate system
when the battery voltage drops below 10.6 volts.
