Mr Andersson is completely correct. There is however the prospect of 3rd party IR control in the future. The S/W I saw has 3 tabs to choose from: BeoIR, 3PartyIR,Delay.

The BeoIR and Delay are both active but the 3PartyIR is not at present. It would suggest developments to come.

Hi ....mr anders(son), 

Do you can set LC2 Lights in the beo5 main room screen beside the A/V sources? 

Thanks. 

yes

 

Okay Anders help me out here!

With the beo-4 you can controle the light... As I am having 8 lc-2 I nuber them..... yeap, for 1 to 8

Beo-4, you need to press..light, list (press number of light) and then go.

With this Beo-5 thing I can not get it work like I want it..... how do you use it with the light and how do you get one light softer ore brighter....so that the other do not get on/off ore what ever....

Ick!

....mr anders(son):

.... thanks anders...

.but when you lke to dim 1 light and the others must stay the same, so light 3 bighter/softer and the rest stay the same and than you like to do thae same wit light number 2...

That does not work,........ try it and tell me!!!! 🤒

My UK B&O dealer has just asked for £400 for the Beo5. No way I'd pay that without the set-up software. I cancelled my order. 😡
That is way to much.... we pay in Holland 525 euro's.....

I suppose he wanted you to pay for the remote + the charger...

p.

According to the specs on B&O website, some 3rd party protocols seems to be supported, but the Beo5 does not transmit IR in the feq needed for most 3rd party products without additional hardware - it only supports 455khz and 2080khz. you can still use a lintronic box to convert as with beo4.

The hardware supports all frequencies, not the software... not yet...
