I have a KCM 831 Hydro that is logging a F 14 fault. Does anyone know the proper procedures to do a valve learn and then a hoistway learn? Also, where I could find an adustment manual?

Do you get your hands on the info to enable you to perform hoistway learn as well as adj procedures. i have a monospace that so far has a bad drive, adon 2, and opt card. (Over 10k w exchanges so far) Have fault codes, prints and inspectors manual but looking for adj manual. Any help will be appreciated.

Sounds like you got more stuff than I got!

This is the most flaky equipment I've ever worked on. So many glitches, such lousy quality, such incredibly expensive parts, especially circuit boards. ($40,000 for an MX20 flat motor!)

Just a bloody shame....

Set the car just below the bottom terminal on inspection ( 61N-low 30 and 61U HI.

make sure the valve is adjusted.

do a shaft setup reset. Menu 6-16 set to 4 then select.

do a shaft learn. Menu5-2 set to 1 then select then put car on auto.

return car to bottom terminal. Put the car on inspection. Do a learn mode. Menu 5-5 set to 1 then select then put car on auto.

we have a monospace that kept on faulting with i think edo faults coming up. lift would stop above or below level all the time but we would never actually catch it. it was also never stuck with passengers plus only happened at bottom and 2nd(of 4)floors. we went thru all range of things and just couldnt find it, cleaned tacho, adjusted brakes etc. we have an ex kone guy and he couldnt fix it either plus the controller had done its time and locked out. it ended up being after alot of spit balling/trial and error to be the load weigher on the standing ends. we added some test weights to the top of car and it hasnt faulted since!

Did you adjust the load weigher to "0" with the car on the top floor. They are very sensitive. I usually check and readjust all of mine every 6 months
