If you install a gate lock, it is recommended you set PB to level 3 (3 seconds). This may need to be adjusted depending on your gate setup. If lock output is set to 3, the lock will activate first for 3 seconds before the gate starts, this is to allow time for the lock to activate.

P9 = Close Delay Time (used for dual gates)

This setting is for Dual Swing gates. You can adjust the opening/closing delay between the two motors. This is required if you have an electric gate lock connected to the control board or if you require Motor 2 to open first and Motor 1 to close first. You can set this from 0 seconds (open and close at the same time) up to 8 seconds. Factory setting is 2 seconds and is recommended even if a gate lock is not installed.
