I’ve screwed up my Beocom 6000 :-( Pin code

18 replies

Any help with my beocom 6000 handset? I can’t register to the base. How can I reset base and handset. I don’t care loosing the agenda. I had phantom phones, because only having one handset now it was numbers 05: handset name. No one knows how to reset a base? I used have a store and kept a pyramid base, but can’t get it to work with my handset. 2004 handset so I think is mk1?

If your BC6000s are Mk1 (with a dot on the button to the left of the wheel):

- Reset base: Press (dot) 7 000 8

- Reset handset: Press (dot) 7 000 9

If BC6000s are Mk2 (with INT on the button to the left of the wheel)

- Service Menu:  9#9#9*INT   (allows handset/base reset)

The base reset can only be carried out from a working (connected) handset.

If you only have one phone line, you should only have one PSTN base, which is either a stand alone PSTN or incorporated into a pyramid charger.  If you have more than one PSTN transmitting that could cause your registration problems.

I have MKI and get a conexión base error when press dot 70008. 70009 I think I have resetee the handset. I will try with the PTSN black box. I know, I don’t install 2 PSTN at the same time.  I have the pyramid base for years, and can’t get it to work. I would like to reset it factory to be able to connect it again.

If you cannot connect to a PSTN base then I think you will have to visit a dealer to get it reset to factory settings.

Do you have just the one Beocom 6000 phone?

If you have reset your Mark 1 Beocom 6000 phone then when you switch the phone on it should say NOT REGISTERED

Given you say you have tried to use the phone with another base and still have a problem tends to mean that the fault is with the phone.

The request for password on a Mark 1 is a software fault that comes up when the phone has six handsets marked as registered even if they are not really registered.

Thank You Keith.  I solved it.  I used have a Bang Olufsen Store once, so i tried with other bases PTSN and finally I could connected to any of the bases.  I believe, that the glitch is in the handset and not in the base.  I set up all he PIN codes to 0000, just in case. Now I am using the pyramid charger and base line.  I like it better.  Thank you for the help.

I used to have 2 beocom 6000 and a Beocom 2, 3 handsets to one base.  I gave one beocom 6000 away.  The Beocom 2 needs a new charger and also the joystick broke.  I like to fix it, also i have a boot size box full of leftovers, mostly beocom 6000 handsets. a few brand new plates, new keyboards, new speaker for beocom 6000.   I think, if I am committed I could at least, put one new beocom 6000 handset together. I don´t really need it, but i take as a hobby.  I am also waiting to see if I find a charger for the beocom 2.  Now, I am finding out, That my beocenter 2 is not opening nor working the cd nor dvd, so now days is one thing after another with BO.  I am attached to all these  toys, but i feel its getting harder and harder to maintain.  There is no a Store in town, anymore, and the technician in the area is not reliable, Gran Canaria, so I DIY all these BO fixes.
