Hi.
I am trying to get the status of 2 gates I have: a swing gate and a garage door.
They are both from BFT and they provide feedback of their status the following way:
Gate open indicator
with gate closed:................off
when gate is opening:..........on
with gate open:..................on
when gate is closing:...........flashing
I can correctly identify when the gate is open or closed but...
It's the 'closing' that causes my problems. When the gate is closing the status of the gate is opened-closed-opened-closed-.... and if I stop the gate when in the closed flash... it reports being closed when it is in fact open.
Is there any logic I can apply to overcome this?
Does someone have similar gates?
Thanks.
Regards,
Mike
