Thanks I appreciate it. At very least I have an idea of what might be going on.

I do remember instructions in one of the manusl for resetting the MkI units. Unfortunately when I sold the old MkI for parts I sent the manuals with it, the beoworld tech area only has three of the four or five manuals I had. So I'm stuck trying things at random. 

I wasn't aware the BSys3 even had the option to be set for use with a Navi Beo4?  Isn't it too old for that?

BSys3 mk3 has option to use Beo4 or Beo4 navi

Must have been the latest and last SW then!  My bad.

oldjack, lee,

 Do either of you know of a way to reset a BS3 to work with an oldfashioned Beo4? I'm at the pincode screen and can't enter "go" as it seems to be setup only to accept the beo4/navi's circle button (where GO is on the old beo4's). I remember there was a forced reset (for emergancy use) on the BS3, but I don't remember the procedure and can't find the documentation.  I'll give the local B&O repairman a call on Monday. 

So my options seem to be: 

1) Find a way to reset the BS3 to work with a beo4, noting I can't get past the pin-code screen.

2) purchase a Beo4 navi.

3) Purchase a beoremote one futureproofing myself for a while. 

thunder, I don't know how urgent it is but I can imagine it is extremely urgent as it is a new B&O toy for you 🙂


But seriously: Where do you live?
I can offer you to send you a Beo 4 Navi for testing/setting up your Beosystem 3. When you're done and configured your Beosystem 3 to work with the standard Beo 4 you simply send it back to me.
I'm pretty sure that you'll take care of it and I'll get it back in the exact same great condition. 

Only downside: I only can send it in ~ about 2 weeks.

Hi thunder!

I can not try it with Old Beo4 anymore.I gave it to a friend,along with Beovision 3-32.Try to borrow Beo4 Navi just to enter pin.Once you are in the settings,you have option to select Beo4 or Beo4 Navi (not sure you have that option with mk1).Or just buy Beo4 Navi.

 

Yes, thunder - where on earth are you.

Location would be fine, if you need help.

Sure a later SW is needed.

When I stood before that (mentioned) BV11-55 with that same problem, I nearly went crazy.

After a while - you know....always try to solve a problem on your own - I called a ‘friend’ in Struer.

And luckily, there was a Beo4/navi in reach..........which - by the way - I first had to set back to navi mode again.

The world is full of problems ;-)
