Beolink 1000

6 replies

Hi, i just bought a beolab 3500 and a beolink 1000 remote, with no menu button, and i saw that pressing shift + text would start the menu but it doesnt. Can someone help me please

Hi and welcome to the forum.

The Beolab 3500 is a speaker, a linkroom speaker intended to play what can be played on a Beosound (of some kind e.g. a BS9000) when it is connected through Masterlink.

There really is no menu to access - apart from a service menu, which is another subject.

You access the sources of the main audio system by pushing Radio, CD or alike - it has no sources of its own.

How are you hoping to use the BL3500 - for what?

Hi, thanks for the reply.

I dont have any B&O device, but i saw online that it can be connected to a ipod for example, with a 7 pin cable to mini jack ( that i have ), and then using a beolink 1000 remote ( i bought one ) you should press menu 0 4 go, to go to MCL mode. On the mk1 remotes that dont have the menu button, you should be able to reach menu pressing shift+text, but im not able to do that when i press it. I press shift text and nothing happens

Just to be sure, to get MENU you need to press SHIFT then TEXT, not both at the same time.
