Gate operator HATO 180 - Connection of an external 230V lamp via relay

Welcome.

I'd like to ask you for help, I'm an amateur hence I'm asking, I have some idea about electrics and electronics, I can do something but not everything and that's why I'm asking for help.

I have a HATO 180 gate operator, there is no output for any warning light etc., but there is a light bulb which illuminates for 3 minutes after the gate is opened and this time is sufficient for me. But the light is not enough for me because it is dark and I would like to connect an external lamp instead of this bulb. I know that this can be done via some kind of relay, but I don't know what kind and where and how to plug it all into the relay.

So the output from the lamp is 24 volts. The power supply to the lamp is 230 volts.

Can anyone help what to buy and how to connect it?

But 24 volt alternating or constant lamp power?

Are there electronics like that in there? https://sklep.hato.com.pl/elektronika/156-elektronika-do-napedu-hato-180c.html
Do you have assembly instructions, especially a description of the connectors?

Probably fixed on the bulb.

Probably, there is a big difference.
You could connect the coil of the relay (24 V DC), in parallel with the bulb and the lamp to the contacts:

Yes it is.

Something like that?

I won't answer you unequivocally, but I suppose it could be 'suitable'.

A better one like this, you'll see what's going on.

Okay, and now I'll add something else. One 230 volt lamp so that it lights up from two drives/bulbs alternately. Because I have two drives. .

This relay is not suitable for switching 230 V circuits.

But how do you alternate?

A separate relay for each drive, and their actuating contacts connected in parallel.

But, in my opinion, the lack of description: 230 V AC does not prove anything.
In the case of this relay, it's rather more about the ceki voltage and the maximum contact current at 24 V DC. .

Two gates one lamp. And once one opens the other time the other, but the light is supposed to come on one

Rather; Parallel and separate the relay coils with diodes?

E.g.: .

Actually, a slip of the tongue, sorry already corrected.

These isolation diodes (in post #16) are unnecessary...since the coils are fed from two different drives.
