I have read on this site some problems with Beolink battery replacement. I had my batteries replaced by an engineer about a year ago, now the remote lights up, and sits up when placed on a table, but no contact at all. Is there another small battery that needs to be changed as well? Thanks so much for any info, as I have been out of the loop for a dozen years. Just been using a Beolink and Beo4 for the remotes. My 2 Beolink master controls will work, but neither one can change the volume. I've heard this is common, but I can't determine what is wrong. As always, thanks sincerely for any advice.

You need to change the capacitors for the IR receiver, and it would be good to change the backup battery also.

Her is a thread about the recap and new backlight, it also shows the backup battery change

If your batteries were changed, it has probably reverted to 2 way operation and will need to be reset to single way operating when used with a non 2 way Beomasters

Hello,
Sorry for my English
I'm new to the forum.
I have a problem with Beolink 7000.
I bought a full audio system in the UK from the B & O dealer - Beosystem 7000 with Beovox Penta speakers and Beolink 1000 and Beolink 7000 pilots.
I have a question about the functionality of Beolink 7000.
My model is type 1541 serial number 09353183 GB No SW 2.1.
The RDS beolink is written on the sticker on the back of the remote control. Does this pilot model actually have an RDS function?
In addition, how to run bidirectional functionality. The pilot sends messages to Beosystem, but does not receive information from the system.
When using the radio, there is no station name, and for example when the CD is used, there is no track number, volume level (red status).
On the blue display (white letters), for example when playing a CD, there is no information on the number of songs.
How to program a timer on this remote.
In addition, on the information boards on the back Beogram and Beogram CD next to the name Bang & Olufsen is 1987. Where from 1987, when the Beosystem 7000 was produced in 1992-1995?

Hi Mariusz,Starting at the end, 1987 is the year the equipment was designed, not the year it was made. The RDS sticker on the BL7000 means that if you use it with a BeoMaster 7000 with RDS module or a BeoCenter 2300/2500 with RDS module, you’ll be able to use the remote to give each stored station a name.BeoMaster 7000 and BeoLink 7000 should both have 2-way IR by default, but it is possible that a previous owner set the BL7000 to 1-way IR. On the BL7000, make sure that it has clear line of sight to the BM7000, then under the SYSTEM option, set the Audio to 2-way. This should enable the display of current volume level, current CD track playing, stored radio stations etc. on the BL7000 display.If 2-way IR still doesn’t work then it indicates a problem in the IR module of either the BL or BM7000. Ageing capacitors can cause this. Good luck: beautiful system, beautiful remote. LawrenceHello, Sorry for my English I'm new to the forum. I have a problem with Beolink 7000.

Thank you, Lawrence, for a very quick response,
I can not, unfortunately, locate the 2-way position in the system / audio option.
On my beolink I go into the panel - setup - display system - compnts - audio, but I do not see the 2 - way position.
Mariusz
I do not have system options on the red boxes.
I only have the display system option on the blue display (white letters) after selecting PANEL (red), then SETUP (blue display - white subtitles) and then DISPLAY SYSTEM - COMPNTS - AUDIO (white), but then there are only for selecting the audio track source (radio / a.tape / cd / phono).
Can you give me the exact path of the proceedings.
I will be very grateful.
Mariusz
Maybe this can help?
