Centurion Gate Motor Error Codes — D5 Evo, D5 Smart & D10 Guide
Centurion D-Series gate motors communicate faults through LED flash codes and beep patterns on the control board. This guide explains the most common Centurion error codes and what they mean.
Common Centurion D5 Evo / D5 Smart Error Codes
- 1 flash / 1 beep: Battery fault — battery voltage too low or battery disconnected. Check battery terminals and charge state.
- 2 flashes / 2 beeps: Obstacle detected — safety beam triggered or gate encountered an obstacle. Check beam alignment and clear obstructions.
- 3 flashes / 3 beeps: Excessive operating time — gate took longer than expected to travel. Check for mechanical resistance, gear rack binding, or pillar obstruction.
- 4 flashes / 4 beeps: Collision detected — gate struck an obstacle. Motor has stopped for safety. Clear obstruction and reset.
- 5 flashes: Motor overcurrent — motor drawing excessive current. Indicates mechanical binding or failing motor winding.
- Rapid continuous flashing: Memory full — remote memory bank is at capacity (50 codes). Delete unused codes to add more remotes.
