So your TV has 2064 x 10 = 20640 hours of usage

72 öre per hour (7 european cent) so far! That's cheap!

I have an MX 7000 with beolink 1000 (with the light button) and pressing the sequence MENU, 0, 0, PLAY I only get the software version which is 1.1

I don't get any other information

2064 can´t be the hours. She (yes, it's a female) is 17 years old and I promise we watch more TV then 20 minutes a day.

If I'm correct

A = hours (x10)

B = hours (x10) link usage

C = number of days the TV has been on

So your TV has 2064 x 10 = 20640 hours of usage

Could be, but it still feel little. 121 days a year, when we watch TV almost every day.

OK, during my years at university of Lund she was collecting dust in my parents house. No time for TV with all that parties.

Counting on 12 years it's an avarage of 172 days a year. With vacations and so on it could maybe be correct.

I will see later this week if the counting has changed.

I get the same but no number at all after a,b or c

Same software version.

When I got LX it had the wrong software so it got updated to 2.2

I own a LX4500 and I can see the hours by pressing

the Beolink1000 without the [LIGHT] button:

[SHIFT] [TEXT] [0] [0] [PLAY]

the Beolink1000 with [LIGHT] button:

[MENU] [0] [0] [PLAY]

A relative of mine has a Beovision LX5500 with BL1000 and there was some key combination that shows the hours the set has been powered on (and some other readings too). I don't know if it works too on the MX series but perhaps somebody else knows...? In case this works on MX series I'd like to know it too as I have a MX3000.

Hello,

Is there some way to check for how long the tv has been on? And how many hours is the picture tube supposed to last? The remote is Beolink 1000.

Kind regards,

Olli
