Beo4 remote to beosound 9000

I think that you might have to press GO or PLAY after the 1 2 7 1, and then unplug the system for a bit.

i did notice as ive tried it with the beo 5000 remote, that the display on the remote says "no contact" no matter what i do. very odd
its staying in "code" mode, for now

When batteries are replaced in the BL5000 it defaults to two-way IR mode. If the two-way functionality in the remote is faulty ( usually due to faulty capacitors) then it will display ‘no contact’.

If you follow the instructions in the BL5000 manual to put it into one-way mode then it should still work to control the BC9500, but you will not be able to carry out advanced programming such as clearing timers.
