Re: Tech help req:- Beovision 1 LS & Beo1

A bit off topic, but I really want to know why did they decide that Beo1 will only work with BV1/BC1? I understand you need a screen for the menus, but still, I think it would be perfect for simple commands ( like volume, next song, stop, play,... ) on a music system.

Anyone with any info on that one?

Marcus wins.

With the Beo4, I change the BeoVision1 OPTION to 1.

The Beo1 now works in all its glory.

However the Beo4 no longer works, which is a shame because I was hoping to be able to use both. I need to be able to press SAT/DVD/RADIO to access the linked sources.

So OPTION1 worked, where can I find more info on the different options? I have put the BV1 back to OPTION 6 for the Beo4 to work again for now.

What I really would like is, both Beo1 & Beo4 work at the same time.

I love this site, I knew someone would have the answer eventually.

I think you are rapidly discovering that the Beo1's primary use is that of a paperweight! I can't understand why it isn't working as you seem to have done everything sensible!

Is the remote sending out a beam for anything other than stand by. You may be able to see the LED in the end lighting up with the naked eye. If not try looking at it with the camera on a mobile phone.

I see 2 lights for every button pressed. Thanks I like that trick, I wasn't sure what to expect when I read your post.

Richard,
Sorry for the delay in responding to your question.
The Beo1 was sold with some versions of the Beocentre 1 and Beovision 1
Your Beovision LS Type 865X was sold with a Beo4.
You can look at the "Remote Control" type in the Service Menu by:-
Press MENU to get yourself into the Beovision MENU
Press 0 0 GO which then takes you to the Service menu
You should see 4 items in the list namely:-
Monitor Information
TV-Tuner
Stand
Remote Control
Move the cursor down to "Remote Control" and it will almost certainly say Beo4

Thanks Keith, it says Beo1.

So does this mean a Beo1 will not control all Beocoenter/Beovision 1's?

I unplugged the masterlink from the Bv1 but still the remote did nothing.

Does anyone know about the Service Menu "Remote Control" section and why mine has ???? all over it.
