I have a BV11 on a motorised hinge.

Usually, on first turning on the TV, the screen moves gently to its usual position (around 40 degrees) during which time the Bang &Olufsen logo appears. The curtains open some seconds after the screen has stopped moving.

However, on two separate occasions the screen has moved very slowly, and the curtains have opened long before the screen has reached its viewing position. I have checked the cabling where it enters the TV and nothing could be interfering with the hinge. Do random slow hinge openings suggest a motor problem? (Switching on and off after one of these 'Slow' starts moves the screen back to the wall and out again at normal speeds).

Interesting.

I will get my BV11 on motorised hinge delivered Wednesday next week. Will ask the technicians if they have heard that problem.

Thanks.

I've had no further repeat, but it would be interesting to know whether it was likely to be a software caused problem rather than a mechanical/ electrical issue.

Hi Graham

We have had numerous motorised wall brackets fitted in the showroom since BeoVision 11 was launched and I can't recall ever having a problem with one.

Given the complexity of the software and frequency of updates, my best guess is that your incident may be software related rather than the motor itself.

Keep me informed if you have further concerns and we will arrange an inspection.

Regards

Opman

p.s. Sorry I missed you the other week.

Is there a possibility to lubricate the motor? My motor is a little bit more noisy than I expected.

Thanks Nick.

All running OK at the moment...... Hopefully just a software glitch.

Vikinger,

I was reading this post and the earlier post when you set up the hinge on the wall.

Would you still have the instructions that the B&O store e-mailed you?

I will send you a private message if that’s ok.

Thanks
