Thank you for your reply.
I pressed the buttons as you suggested with the ouverture in standby and then with the unit on. I then pressed the buttons one after the other and then again together. The standby light did not blink. The panel containing the sensor is perfectly clean. And the little light in that panel when the unit is on did not blink either.
I guess that the sensor is broken or faulty. I do not want to take the unit to pieces. Are there any more suggestions please ?
When pressing SOUND 1 STORE the buttons should indeed be pressed one after the other.
Are you sure that those three specific keys are working on the remote? View with a phone camera and you should see the IR transmitters glowing.
If the remote is indeed working then there's nothing else that I can suggest other than getting the system repaired.

Interesting thread....I have an Overture and a very old but still working Beosystem 5000 (Beomaster 5000, Beogram CD50, Beocord 5000 and Beogram 5005). Unfortunately the MCP 5000 does not work and I do not have a Beolink 1000....but I do have a couple of spare Beo 4's....
The Beo 4's drive the Overture very nicely but do not operate the Beosystem 5000. Is there any way I can get the Beo 4 to operate the Beosystem 5000? There is no SOUND 1 STORE equivalent on a Beo 4....

You can carry out the same procedure with Beo4 as follows:
Turn the Beosystem to standby/off.
On the Beo4, press the POWER button and LIST together. Then press LIST until OPTION is shown, press GO (centre button), and then press LIST to show A.OPT. Then press 1. The power light on the device may blink to show that it has been accepted.

But further to my above post, I just remembered that the BM5000 needs to be used with a special 'IR Code Converter' in order to be controlled by the BL1000 or Beo4. This is a special box with a separate IR sensor.

OK, Followed your guidance and it didn’t work.....clearly need to find a converter box, but many thanks for your help!
