Re: BV7-40 MK3, red standby LED blinks

Alsfeld — Tue, 03 Feb 2009 15:58:21 GMT

I have the same problem with my Beovision 9, SW: 3,1.

After 30secs sometime the red LED strats blinking. When I press the red turn-off button it stops blinking. Sometimes I have to repeat this procedures two to three times.

Should I change the software?
Does the blinking heard the TV? - I really don't care if the red LED blinks or shines.

I have now had the update from SW3.24 and everything works well. Its like a new TV. Frankly, I'm a bit p***ed off that Beoworld was the only place I found out about the software upgrade, and even then had to twist my dealers arm.

Not surprised you are br*wned off! It has been a known issue for some time now. Who is is the dealer?

Name and shame

Yes, get 5.02 installed. I got a BV7-40 last summer and to be honest, i was disappointed with both it, and the Beo5.( used with a sky box).

Tim, sorry to offer a non-technical and software related solution, but I have experienced this problem with low voltage lighting and electrical inteference from other IR emitting sources. Do you have any nearby?

Hi Tim
I think it can be a software issue. Look what the new software fixes:

Damn, you beat me to it :)

It first started recently, 30secs after switching off the TV the red LED starts blinking. I do have a PIN code attach to the TV, but the power was never disconnected.
Does anyone know what this might be?
Thanks,
Tim

I reported the blinking LED to my dealer months ago, and with the new 5.02 SW it should be solved.

Hi and Thanks for the reply Stefan.

I did, and it did go away, ok, it wasnt 1 minute... but the thing is that a couple days later it happened again...

Ill try it for a minute today... strange...

Maybe a Masterlink problem. Disconnect the mains for about one minute and reconnect. Everything should be fine now.
