The infrared beams communicate to each other by using a light signal. The ‘Master’ beam or receiver is the beam that Actually does the work, it communicates with    the Sliding gate’s computer and tells the Automatic Gate opener when there might be an obstruction in it’s way. The beams will then stop the gate operator from closing the entrance drive way gate on to pedestrians and  vehicles.

 We usually install infrared beams at properties with a long entrance to the drive way gate in Paarl. The other places Where we would typically install the Beams on a Electric gate opener is where we have a high amount of traffic that uses the automatic gate operator, or where ever a client wants to enable the auto close function on theire gate motor in Paarl.
