Possible Causes
Incorrect partial opening limit set, Faulty limit memory, Misuse of partial open button, Encoder miscalibration
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Keep clear of the door while testing. Disconnect power before opening covers.
Step-by-step:
- Check control inputs: Ensure no external switch is wired to the partial opening input that may be stuck closed.
- Reset partial opening: Enter the programming mode and delete or re-set the partial opening position according to the Hormann manual (often by moving the door to the desired position and storing it).
- Relearn full travel: Perform a full open/close learning cycle so the operator correctly knows the end positions.
- Test: Use the main open/close button. If the door still stops at the same partial point and 'b' shows, the memory or encoder may be faulty.
