Is it possible to switch on PHONO with Beo4 on BM5500?

6 replies

Hello, everyone!

I've bought the nice Beogram 5005 LP from Spiros (specal thanks for the good packaging!)

Is it possible to use Beo4 remote to switch the BM5500 to PHONO?

Now I have to use the old Beolink 1000 for it, while Beo4 can control every other function, when the LP is playing.

 

 

Thanks!

Yes it`s possible. You will find a PHONO button in the list, if your Beo4 is one of the very early ones. If it`s a newer one you can use the N.RADIO button, it`s the same IR command.

Thanks, Stefan!

There is no separate PHONO button- should I program the N.RADIO for it somehow?

 

Thanks!

The PHONO- ( or N.RADIO) button is in the LIST function. If you press LIST several times you will find additional functions.

If you press LIST several times and PHONO - or N.RADIO is displayed just press GO and your BM should power up in PHONO mode.

If you don`t find these buttons in the list you must add it. Pres and hold STANDBY - press LIST - now ADD? should be displayed - press GO - press LIST until you find PHONO or N.RADIO - press GO - now the button is added to your list. You can now activate your BG by pressing LIST (until PHONO (N.RADIO is displayed) and then GO. Hope this helps.

Thank you very much for your great help!

Will try to do that tonight, and will report.

Thanks a lot for a detailed advise- I've added the N.RADIO button, and now works perfectly!
