Troubleshooting Calibration Issues on Parklio™ Chain
If you perform a calibration on the Chain barrier but the correct position is not displayed in the app — and you receive messages that the barrier is opening or closing followed by a timeout error — the first step is to check the magnetic switch.
How to Check the Magnetic Switch
-
Disconnect the wires leading from the magnetic switch to the Parklio™ Brain device.
-
Set your multimeter to the buzzing (continuity) mode, as shown in the reference image.
-
Connect the wires from the Brain to the multimeter probes.
-
Run the calibration again. When the inner spring of the Chain reaches the magnetic switch, the multimeter should emit a buzzing sound.
If the multimeter buzzes, the magnetic switch is functioning correctly and accurately detecting the position. In this case, the issue is most likely with the Parklio™ Brain device.
