Beosound 4000

8 replies

Hi, I wanted to bring my Beosound 4000 back to live in a single room with a BV5 and BC2. Is there any options I have to avoid turning on the the Beosound 4000 when listening to radio etc on the BC2? Thanks for your help.

Does your Beosound 4000 support A.Option 4?

If so you'd use the Beosound by calling LINK RADIO (or any other sources)

It is worth trying A.OPT 4, but I don't think the BS4000 supports this as only A.OPTs 0, 1, 2, 5 and 6 are mentioned in the setup manual.

You could of course put the BS4000 in A.OPT 0 so that it no longer responds to any IR, but you will of course have to operate it from its front panel.

Instructions for how to set the A.OPT are found here: 

Location: Warwickshire, UK

Thank you, I have programmed the 4000 to Aopt 0 but when turning on the CD on the BC2 both units are playing combining sounds.

I'm not sure what are the option settings on the BC2, but you should trying setting it so it only reacts to Video sources. Maybe try A.OPT 0 and V.OPT 1

Thank you, will check
