4500 and beo 4

26 replies

Hello,

 I have one very simple question. Since I have lost my beolink 1000 remote and I ain't gonna change my beosystem 4500(ever!), was wondering if I can control my system over beomaster 4500 with beo 4 remote.

 Thank you

Haribo, if I were you I would use a Beo4 and start looking for another Beolink 1000 if programming is needed.
Weebyx has a point about the programming and two-way but the Beolink 5000 is just bad compared to the other two. It will continually loose contact, the range is not as good and it doesn't feel as good ergonomically. And IMHO two-way is not that big a deal.

I have had a BS4500 and tried all three remotes working it but actually ended on Beo4 after all programming was done.

Also keep in mind that your BM4500 might not support two-way. I forgot from which SW version two-way is supported but others will probably fill me in.

Hope it helps :)
 

Thanx a lot for help. I bought Beo 4 yesterday and all works fine for me. Ergonomicly its just amazing, even better then heavy beolink 1000 imo.

 

Can you program the radio stations/frequencies with the 5000?
