No valid configuration!

27 replies

Hi

I installed the new firmware on my Beo6. But after the Beo ConfigTool 5.12 installed the firmware, it always displays on my Beo6: "no valid configuration". I tried everything but I cannot solve the problem. The ConfigTool also doesn't recognize my Beo6. :-(

Can you help me please?

Thank you

The first thing to do is switch off the Beo6 by pressing the centre button for many seconds.

After it has turned off, put it back into the stand and try again.

Location: Hampshire, England

I tried it already couple of times. I put it back to the stand which is connected over usb and electricity. It still displays: no valid configuration

What does the Info menu in CT 5.12 say about your Beo6?

And do you have a BS5 in your setup? I Think yes...:)

you'll have to configure the IP adress of your Beosound 5 in the setup menu of the Beo6. The problem is that this config need to be find in the screen, on an ghost boutton !!!

When you press stand by + Go you'll go to the setup screen of the Beo6 then you'll press Wireless (not sure because mine is french version), you see at the screen the Manual button just above press the screen, you'll have to enter the IP adress of your Beomaster 5. If you don't do this, there'll be no connection at all.

Hi, can you send me a link to where I might find the latest Config Tool (5.12) for the Beo 6?  many thanks

I could solve the problem. The problem is that I use the Beo5/6 config tool on my Mac with parallel desktop. That's why it always loses the USB connection. I connected to a windows computer and now I can download the configuration without problem.

Hi, I have the same problem but the Config Tools is actually being halted in the "Writing animation" phase and nothing happens. "No Valid Configuration is displayed. In the CT 5.12 I can see the Firmware to be version 2.11a. If I loosen the Beo6 a little from the stand the CT 5.12 goes to the next phase but stops suddenly.

Rebooting the Beo6 doesn´t help and holding it firmly with my hands dont either. I checked the USB-software and it looks OK.

Any suggestions? The remote is brand new. Perhaps the battery level is to low?

I just downloaded the CT 5.12 via Internet and hasn´t been connected to Beo Servers yet.

I got same problem before.

If you have windows PC, it should be installed "Net Framework ver.3.5(at least)" on your computer.

I have two PC (laptop, desktop).

When I got "No vailed configuration" I changed another PC(with NET Framework 3.5), re-install 5.12CTtool then Beo6 back to normal.

Also updated 2 way function.

I think CTtool 5.12 software might be made based on Microsoft NET Framework so software need specific NET Framework version (at least Ver 3.5)

You can download NET Framework 3.5 in the microsoft website.

 

 

Now it worked!! The battery level seems important 😎

Now I'm up to some programming :-)

Thanks for your input, brgds Ingvar
