Gate Opener Infrared Remote
An infrared remote for an automatic gate opener allows you to control your gate from a distance, while the infrared sensor provides safety by detecting obstacles and automatically reversing the gate's movement if an obstruction is encountered.
Here's a breakdown:
-
Infrared (IR) Remote:This is a standard remote control, similar to those used for televisions, that transmits a signal to the gate opener using infrared light. You press a button on the remote, and it sends a coded signal to the gate opener's receiver, which then activates the gate motor.Â
-
Infrared (IR) Sensor:This sensor, often found near the gate, emits an infrared beam. If an object (like a person or car) breaks this beam while the gate is closing, the sensor detects the interruption and signals the gate opener to stop and potentially reverse its direction to prevent accidents.Â
-
Auto-Open/Close Functionality:Many automatic gate openers also have an "auto-close" feature, allowing you to set a timer for the gate to automatically close after a certain period (e.g., 5, 10, or 20 seconds). This adds convenience by eliminating the need to manually close the gate.Â
-
Remote Range:The range of the remote control can vary, but typical ranges are around 100 feet (30 meters). Some systems can handle a larger number of remote controls (e.g., up to 25).Â
-
Safety and Security:The infrared sensor adds a layer of safety to your gate system. The automatic reversing feature helps prevent accidents and property damage.Â
-
Other Features:Some automatic gate openers also include features like:
- Manual release:Â Allows you to manually open and close the gate in case of power outages or other emergencies.Â
- Overheating protection:Â The motor may have a built-in protection mechanism to prevent overheating.Â
- Multiple control options:Â Some systems can also be controlled via a wireless keypad or even through a smartphone app.Â
- Manual release:Â Allows you to manually open and close the gate in case of power outages or other emergencies.Â
