The Automated Gate Control System is designed to automate the operation of sliding or overhead gates for residential areas or garages. It seamlessly integrates with radio relays, initiating gate movement, while also monitoring signals from limit switches, an infrared presence sensor, and activating a signal lamp. Additionally, the system can perform gate closure in cases of non-passage or absence of a closure signal within a specified time frame.

Description of the scheme of work with the software
Customizable Control:
The controller program, developed by akYtec specialists using the akYtec ALP software in FBD language, is adaptable to suit specific site requirements.
You can easily customize the time blocks in the program for your applications:
TON1 & TON2 - Delay in opening and closing the gate after a command is given.
TON3 - Gate opening delay if an object gets stuck on the position of the IR sensor.
BLINK1 - Timings for signal lamp blink.
TOF1 &TON6 & TON4 - delay and time for the closing signal if the gates are open for a long time.
TON5 - delay time for the closing signal if the IR sensor did not work (no one passed through).
Full technical description of the project
Functionality:
When a signal is received by the radio relay to open from the remote control, the controller promptly initiates the gate-opening sequence. The gate drive ceases operation upon activation of the first limit switch. Subsequently, the system enters a wait state, allowing sufficient time for a vehicle to pass through. The passage is duly marked once it crosses the path of the infrared sensor. Notably, the gate will remain open if an obstruction is detected by the infrared sensor.
Following this, the system is poised to respond to one of two conditions: either it awaits a signal to close the gate, or it waits for the predetermined duration specified in the program, at which point it automatically triggers gate closure. The drive halts operation upon the activation of the second limit switch.
Additionally, the system offers a feature enabling automatic gate closure in the event that no object passes through the infrared sensor beam after a specified duration.
This automated gate control system guarantees efficient and reliable operation, enhancing security and convenience for residential and garage gate applications.
