New underground motors doesn't pause - Mahammad - 29-04-2022

We used to have Bft motors powering the gate but after vandalisms it’s been changed to underground motors, I’m not sure what brand it is. 

With the old Bft motors I was able to press the gate open button at any time during the sequence to pause it and leave the gate halfway open then close it again by pressing the button. 

With the new underground motors they don’t seem to pause, during the sequence if I press the open button it continues to open and not pause, I assumed this pause function was within the controller itself not the motors? Can anyone confirm this, and if it’s possible to bring back the pause feature?

Hi Mahammad,

What is the model number of your control panel?
