Hello all

My beo4 has stopped controlling my 9000 and I can't figure out why. I've tried another Beo4 also with no luck. Apart from the 9000 being unplugged for several weeks I cant think why it would do this. The 9000 still works fine when you manually press the buttons on the control panel. Any chance they just need paired somehow? I seem to remember some kind of Config command being in the manual. 

You may have set it to Option 0 which turns off the IR sensor. You need to set it to option 1 or 2. 

Are your speakers plugged in?????

It defaults to Option 0 without them!!!!!!

Speakers are plugged in but they are not the same ones as I have replaced my 4000s with 6000s would this make a difference?

The type of speakers should not make a difference.

Just re-set the option to 1 and you should be away as normal.

Do you know how to set the options?

Press LIST and the red dot together and then press LIST alone till OPTION? comes up. Press GO and then LIST again till you see A.OPT. Then press the correct number. 1 or 2 depending on your set up. 

Got to go out but will try that later. Any idea why they would loose their link after all these years? is it because the 9000 was unplugged?

You probably unplugged the speakers without unplugging the BS9000. It will, as Graham says above, default to Option 0.

Ha! Sorted! Resetting the Options has fixed it. Thanks all for your help guys. Great forum community you've got here. I'm often found hanging with that other helpful bunch of obsessives over at avforums.com – pop over and visit sometime.

Cheers again.
