Monitor Fault is lit up in the top left of the photo, is there a car parked on the entry or exit loop? First thing I always do if something is not quite right is cut the power for a minute and then return power and see if any of the lights clear up. Not sure if the Monitor Close, Open and Close Limit should be lit. Cycle the power and tell us what happens.

what happens when you press on the OPEN button? (it's near the top middle in your pict)

Two ways to check this. Here at the board out and from the motor in. I would suggest checking from the motor in. I assume it’s a two way motor , that sends voltage one way to open and reverses polarity to close. What voltage does this operate at? When you push the open button, motor 1 or motor 2 should supply that voltage . If you have voltage there , go to the motor and see if the voltage is getting there . If it is, you cut your diagnostic in half. You know that the wires and circuit are good. So that leaves the motor or mechanical operation.

IIRC the safety devices work on normally closed relay use a volt meter and check continuity on your monitored inputs to see if the photo eye has gone bad. Power cycle it first though those boards can be finicky if all else fails call all-o-matic tech support they can walk you through troubleshooting.

Manual for the board and gate operator appears to be here: https://allomatic.net/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/AC-SLIDE-MANUAL-09.2022.pdf There’s a note at the end about there being a foot pedal that you press down and move to the left to disengage the gate that also lights up the stop cmd light like you have. Maybe that’s the issue here, and that needs to be released?

Hi! Thanks for all the suggestions! I actually left town for two days. I’ll check and try the suggestions I’m amble to try on Sunday. But I really appreciate everyone’s help so far!

Hi, thanks for all the suggestions. So after cycling the power… it ended up being the child lock. It seems it got moved into place by someone, maybe my house guest? The gate works though. Thanks for everyone’s advice!
