Gates Opening After Closing - tht7 - 15-04-2017

Hi,

I am having a problem with my FAAC gates (245 board). The issue is that the gates will automatically open on their own about 5-8 seconds after they are closed. It seems to be that if the gates have been open for a while (over half an hour) then they will not reopen on closing. However, if you open the gates, go through, and then close them, they will reopen. You have to repeat the process another 1-2 times until they decide to remain closed. The temperamental nature of it is a real head-scratcher.

Any ideas what could be causing this? The photocells aren't configured at the moment but I don't believe this would be the cause.

Any help massively appreciated!
