Possible Causes

Safety input configured as test/bypass, Photocell wiring reversed, Safety device not recognized during self‑test, Incorrect jumper on safety terminals

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Never permanently bypass safety devices. Any changes must maintain compliance with local safety standards.

  • Check safety wiring: Verify that photocells and safety edges are wired exactly as per the Garador schematic, including correct polarity and test lines.
  • Inspect jumpers: Some models require a factory jumper if no safety edge is used. Ensure any required jumper is present and correctly placed.
  • Run safety self‑test: Power cycle the operator and allow it to perform its safety device self‑test. Do not block beams or press buttons during this process.
  • Reconfigure inputs: In the programming menu, confirm that the safety inputs are set to the correct device type (e.g., photocell, 8k2 edge, none) for your installation.
  • Test closing: After corrections, test closing from remote and verify that the door reverses correctly when the beam is blocked or the edge is pressed.
