hi Craig - yes its an infra red switch bud sadly no it doesn't work from the beolink 1000.

i use my non B&O tv remote to control it. It will learn most IR codes so its quite handy but i think the B&O frequency is outwith its range! i got it from B&Q, it was around £20 i think.

Well, it was worth asking. Although I had a feeling what you reply would be. My Parents have one that looks similar. When they had it fitted I tried it with my Beo4. No luck though.

Craig🙂

well guys - yesterday i managed to win an auction on ebay for an MX4000 (green cover, aparently - is this rare? I think i'd prefer black or white so i may change it). I got it very cheaply as it was listed badly. Unfortunately it will be a long drive to Nottingham to pick it up from home (i live near Glasgow).

The auction includes the motorised stand too (but this requires assembly) - i hope it includes a Beolink 1000 or Beo4 as this was not stated in the auction.

my only worry is that the person listing the television has zero feedback so i hope it doesnt turn out to be a con (we all have to start sometime i guess).
