Gates should have a dip switch

[connerk]

This feature will provide a way to introduce settings unique to each gate which will allow them to:

• be addressed in order to perform sequenced lighting sequences from one gate to another.
• have unique behaviors, responding to alerts differently than other gates
• have various lengths
• have additional features such as motors

Consider:

• IC MCP23017 16 channel or MCP23008 8 channel I2C port expander - allows for additional pins on an I2C enabled microprocessor
