Opening Photocells not opening.

    I currently have a set of Nice Me3000 motor's and an A6F board running my gates here, I took the opportunity to pick up a set of posts and photocells to have the gates open from the inside automatically.

    All seemed straight forward, posative and negative running at 24 vac off 21 -22 on the established cells, common off 23, and the relay is wired to 26 .

    On the second set, the terminal is 27 for photocell 1 , and all others should be the same.

    The final setting appears to be dip switch 6 to have the automatic open - stop -close active when Photocell 1 comes live.

    So after much testing, the internal relays activate, but no action on the motors when i trigger Photocell 1.


    I'm stumped now, but something that's troubling me is there's a link running from 23 ( common ) to 25 ( stop ) and in to 27 ( photocell 1 )
    I cant figure out why this would be set in this manor .. Perhaps somebody could shine somelight on this ?
