Controller reboots on its own

Controller reboots on its own

Controller reboots when the electric lock is activated. 

Incorrect wire gauge:
  1. Use wires of the correct gauge that can handle the current required by both the controller and the electric lock without voltage fluctuations.
Inadequate power supply:
  1. Check the specifications of the power supply to ensure that it provides sufficient stable power to support the combined load of the controller and the electric lock. If necessary, consider using a more powerful or more stable power supply.
Improper connection:
  1. Check that the electrical connection between the controller and the electric lock is correct and secure.
No protective diode installed:
  1. Make sure that a protective diode or varistor is installed on the electric lock side according to the wiring diagram.
Electric lock with high consumption:
  1. Make sure that the load generated by the electric lock corresponds to the technical specifications of the controller. Check the voltage and current consumption of the lock and compare it with the allowable values for the controller.
Electromagnetic Interference (EMI):
  1. Locate the controller and wiring away from sources of EMI such as large motors, transformers, or other high-powered electrical equipment. Shielding wires or using twisted pair wiring will also help reduce the effects of EMI.
Grounding Problems:
  1. Make sure the controller, power supply, and electric lock are properly grounded according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Avoid creating ground loops by using separate grounding points for different components.
