Hi Ken,

If you remove the Beo4 battery cover and batteries there should be a label with the Type No. / Serial No. in the battery bay.

There may be a way to see it on screen - perhaps andybandy knows.

Beo4 type 1710 is introduce in 2010. then a smal upgrade in april 2012 with type 1712. 

I cannot understand what new top plate is. So not realy sure what the different. Maybe only some smal change in the production with a new aluminium top plate you dont realy will see the different. 

Sorry cannot help more=) 

But Beo4 with the joystick is the last beo4 made. So if you think about your list with MK1, MK2 and so one. its a MK4. No more after that. 

 

You have also the exclusive beo4 cinema for a period, that only was sold to smal dealer out there. 

 

I seem to remeber seeing a hotel version as well.

Since a Beo4 is ir-only, most new products can’t be controlled natively.

However, you can e.g. connect an ir-receiver to a BS Core (or even to a BL50/90) and use ir-control via Beo4/navi.

Please specify, what you aim for.

I know that the Beoremote one came out in 2015 and was IR & BT,

I just would like to know as I have a Beovision 7-40 mk5 and can use my Beo4 mk 4 to control my Tv and stereo.

f I upgrade to een a newer tv can I still control my older other B&O products, as I have read  that the new beoremote is BT only ?
