To check if the Beo5 is in deler mode go ito the Settings menu by pressing the red dot button and GO (center button) together.

You should be on the SETUP screen

call up the numbers page by pressing + on the bottom of the screen. Then press 00 GO (center button). You will see Dealer Option on screen. you need to press Normal Mode on the left and it should be red.

Hopefully this will restore the IR range,

Good morning,

I first had to deal with the BeoConnect and BeoPlayer. So I would like to say a big thank you back. You were right the Beo5 was really in dealer fashion. Thanks to your great description, I changed it.

Thank you nice weekend

Hello Andreas

I am very glad you were able to change your Beo5 from dealer mode. Hopefully the IR Range is as good as your Beo4 now.

In your earlier post you say your Beo4:
controls Light: LC2 = Does Beo5 control LC2 now?
controls SAT: Beovision 7 with DVD and soundbar = Does Beo5 control SAT now?
controls N.Radio & N.Music & CD Player: Beosound 5 and CD Player Beomaster 5 incl. Beolab8000 = Does Beo5 control N.Radio & N.Music & CD Player now?

Regards

Good morning Stoobie,

turning off the dealer mode was just the right thing, now the transmission power is also great.

The TV (DVD) works perfectly.

Did not find the LC2 equally LC2 and with N.Radio and N.Music the same is because there are several of the same e.g. N.Music. I then tried different ones offered in the software.

LC2 now works perfectly, N.Radio I switched to radio in the BS5 and of course on the Beo5 also on radio. What I haven't found yet, why the radio stations in the display of the Beo5 don't harmonize with the BS5. N.Music can also be turned on, but I can't use the different stored CDs yet.

Hi Andreas,

It sounds like you are doing very well with your set up. Congratulations.

I do not have BS5 so do not know how the Radio Stations should look and harmonise.

Can I please ask you to confirm that your remote is definitely a Beo5 and not the newer Beo6 which has WiFi and connects to the BS5.

If it is the Beo6 you my need to look at getting it to connect to harmonise the radio stations.

You might wish to start a new discussion in the Beo5/Beo6 forum where other users can assist you better than me :)

Hello Andreas,

Thank you for checking your remote. Unfortunately the Beo5 and BS5 don’t communicate 2-way so the Beo5 radio stations cannot harmonise with the BS5. You have to manually put what is on the display on BS5 onto buttons on the Beo5. The station logos can sometimes be found in the configuration tool or taken from the internet but might need some "photshop" work first.
